"The shadows will grant you another life; try not to waste it this time." — Pidge Filthfinder

Soulstone is a warlock ability. It is a combat resurrection spell that uniquely can also cast on living targets to prepare in advance.

Notes and trivia

• Soulstone can be used in combat.
• Soulstone can be used on both living (including self) and dead players:
  • Cast Soulstone on living player will give the target a "Soulstone" buff which lasts 15 minutes. If the player dies with the buff, they will be offered the opportunity to resurrect on the spot, or to be released as a ghost in the normal way. It has higher priority than [Reincarnation].
  • Cast Soulstone on dead player will resurrect the target, like a traditional combat resurrection spell e.g. [Rebirth].
• Soulstone Rank 2 is a specialization ability despite available to all three warlock specializations at same level.
