Casting any Chemical Protection skill applies a coating to the matching gear slot on the target. While active, that slot cannot be broken by skills or stripped by Strip-type abilities. The duration scales with skill level, lasting 5 minutes at Lv 1 up to 15 minutes at Lv 3.

Overview

Chemical Protection is a family of four skills that coat a piece of an ally's equipment in a protective chemical, making it immune to being broken or stripped for the duration. Each variant guards a different equipment slot, and learning them follows a fixed order rather than a single shared prerequisite.

Mechanics

Casting any Chemical Protection skill applies a coating to the matching gear slot on the target. While active, that slot cannot be broken by skills or stripped by Strip-type abilities. The duration scales with skill level, lasting 5 minutes at Lv 1 up to 15 minutes at Lv 3.

The four variants unlock in sequence, each one gating the next:

  • Chemical Protection Helm — protects the upper headgear. Requires Pharmacy Lv 1.
  • Chemical Protection Shield — protects the shield. Requires Chemical Protection Helm Lv 1.
  • Chemical Protection Armor — protects the armor. Requires Chemical Protection Shield Lv 1.
  • Chemical Protection Weapon — protects the weapon. Requires Chemical Protection Armor Lv 1.

Only one Chemical Protection effect can be active on a target at a time; applying a new one replaces any existing coating. The target must have the relevant piece of equipment worn for the skill to succeed.
