Notes[]
- The attribute bonuses granted are calculated to ensure that the sum of all attributes (including base attributes) equal 999; therefore, the actual bonus values may vary.
- Note that while Transcendency may grant a degree of defense against status spells that MND and INT can defend against, it typically will not protect against status ailments from other sources, such as TP moves. Players are still vulnerable to several crippling status effects, such as Stun, Petrify, Terror, Charm, Amnesia, Doom, and Death, all of which can severely hamper Transcendency's output.
- Against certain foes, it is advisable to use a "screen" item along with the brew, such as a Doom Screen, to protect against these effects. Alternatively, a SMN can use Perfect Defense to guard against several of these effects at once.
- Magic Attack Bonus, while seemingly boosted by this effect, is not maxed like with other stats. Utilizing equipment and atma that enhances Magic Attack Bonus can still greatly improve magical damage dealt, often to the point of making elemental damage weapon skills superior to physical ones.
- HP and MP will still be set to 9999 under Transcendency even if the player is Weakened. However, spell recasts and attack speed will still be affected as usual.
- Transcendency may not be lost upon death, a player that dies under Transcendency may be raised and still have the effect for the time duration, assuming the 3 minute timer is still going.
- If effect wears off before the 5 minute timer on Weakness, you will still be weakened.
- If you are double weakened, spells and elemental weapon skills will still hit for 0 damage under Transcendency. Ranged attacks and ranged weapon skills will also miss or inflict 0 damage.
- Bonuses are not granted to pets.
