We have changed all of the level 5 research skills for the Nature, True Sight, Aryana, Moradeim, and Sukhder obelisks as follows:

Nature Research 5

Remove the mark in an infused room or yourself. Syntax: SHARD CLEANSE [me].

 

True Sight Research 5

100% immune to all seeking skills Lasts 60 seconds and costs a red shard. Syntax: SHARD SILENCE.

 

Aryana/Moradeim/Sukhder Research 5

Infuse the room AND the character with the power of the specified obelisk. If you leave the room, you can infuse the new room you are in. You cannot infuse over another room. A player must use the Nature Research skill in order to cleanse it first. However, you may overwrite your characters infusion whenever you like. The effect lasts 20 minutes in both cases and costs 1 red shard.

Syntax: SHARD INFUSE [ARYANA|MORADEIM|SUKHDER]

• Any Aryana infused player in and Aryana room with have 20% more maximum health. If two player are both Aryana infused, they will suffer -20% damage from each other.
• Any Moradeim infused player in and Moradeim room with have a random 50% resist that will change every 10 seconds. If two player are both Moradeim infused, they will strike each other with random damage types.
• Any Sukhder infused player in and Suhdker room with have 20% more maximum mana. If two player are both Sukhder infused, they will deal +20% damage to each other. The effect will last 20 minutes.
