Cooldown 10 minutes

Preparation is a rogue ability. It finishes the cooldown of your other abilities when activated.

Tips and tactics

  • As it may only be used once every 10 minutes, it is a good idea to burn multiple skills as to gain the most from its effect. Save Preparation for when you don't have other choices.
  • It may be a life-saving ability. If you're about to die and you have your [Vanish] still on cooldown, use Preparation and you will be able to vanish again.
