Energy Storage[edit]

For each rank of Energy Storage, your maximum Energy raises by 3. In PvE, each time you deal elemental damage with a spell, other targets in the area take 3% of that damage per rank of Energy Storage. Several skills related to improving Overcast efficiency and gaining Health or Energy become more effective with higher Energy Storage.

— in-game description

Energy Storage is the primary attribute of Elementalists.

Notes
  • Energy Storage contains mostly utility skills related to energy management, as well as the 3 Elementalist self heals and 1 damage spell.
  • Unlike in many other role-playing games, energy regeneration is not based on maximum energy. Thus increasing Energy Storage is not in itself a form of energy management.
  • The Disciple of Energy blessing increases Energy Storage by 1, even if your character's primary profession is not Elementalist.
