History of Energy Transfer

Overview

Energy Transfer is a Weapon Perk on Swords. While you guard and take damage, the perk charges your Class Ability energy. The more damage you absorb while guarding, the more energy you gain.

Where it appears

Energy Transfer is a trait on several swords, including Caretaker, Nasreddin, Just in Case, Bequest and Sola's Scar. It was added in Season 7.

Balance

Patch 2.8.0 lowered the ability energy this perk generates, because guarding no longer consumes ammo.

Use

It rewards sword builds that block often. Each block that absorbs damage feeds your class ability.
