Off-Hands


 * See also: Unique Off-Hands

Off-hand or Focus items are implements intended for spellcasters. They occupy the left-hand "shield" gear slot on a character, however unlike shields they provide no defenses.

Focus items come in two styles, tomes and savage implements. Both types of Focus items provide a set amount of cooldown reduction, but differ in their base energy regeneration. Tomes provide flat bonuses, whereas savage Foci give a percent bonus: which one provides the greater benefit will depend on gear preferences. Spellcasters will want a combination of Weapon and Off-hand item for the largest bonuses to their preferred damage types.
