Focus

Additional Details

 * Evie-Only skill.
 * Focus starts at Rank E for free, despite Rank E having an AP cost.
 * While standing still, Focus pauses for a couple seconds at each level to allow the player to select a spell.
 * If the player releases the button for just a moment as soon as the spells for a level appear and presses the button again, Focus will not pause and instead continue charging. This can save a few seconds in battle, especially for the higher level spells. (As shown in the skill's video).
 * Using this method, one can cast a spell faster than if one were to use the same spell by pressing its quickslot key.
 * Standing Focus cannot be held perpetually at the highest level of focus available; after a while it will automatically be cancelled. Perpetual holding of Focus at a certain level is available with moving Focus as mentioned below.
 * You can initiate Focus while moving, but you must come to a stand-still (stop pressing movement keys) in order to use a spell. You cannot begin moving again after standing still while using Focus.
 * The release-and-press method of speeding up Focus as mentioned above cannot be used when using Focus while moving, hence Focusing is slower while moving.
 * Coming to a stand-still while partially charged to the next Focus level will immediately drop Focus to the last level that Evie had charged to fully. For example, if Focus was charged mid-way between level 2 and 3, coming to a stand-still will drop Focus to level 2 and Evie can use level 2 spells.
 * During moving Focus, if a level is reached, you can let go of the button to keep Focus at that level perpetually while continuing to move. To cast a spell, you must hold down the button again before standing still.
 * Mana Amber cannot be used during a standing Focus. Instead, Evie will perform the hopping dodge backwards if no movement keys are pressed.
 * However, Mana Amber can be used mid-dodge.
 * If, during a moving Focus, Mana Amber is performed, then after Mana Amber ends, Evie will perform a standing Focus at the last fully-charged level as usual. However, the execution of Mana Amber must be quick: let go of the movement keys then immediately press the dodge key.
 * PvP-only changes: The super-armor status from Mana Shield is not active when focusing in motion.
 * There is a small non-damaging AOE stun when focus firsts starts charging and whenever focus starts charging again after reaching a level.
