Stay of Execution

Post by lyssa.a »

Stay of Execution is a rampant abuse of what's almost definately a bug, giving you infinite Regen 6 for the one-time cost of 14 Dust, which is small enough to be cast via bloodweaving. Regen 6 is the highest useful level of regen, which is able to regenerate your entire health bar in a second (1HP/tick). You can bloodweave after this spell is cast, in a move I call Atrophic Bloodweaving, allowing you to bloodweave any spell costing less than 20 dust for effectively free.

This works because Hex doesn't boundscheck potency. The first White Sun's Zenith gives you Regen 0 with infinite duration. Normally this would be useless, but vanilla's potion shadowing mechanics allows us to effectively upgrade the potency without reducing the duration through a second White Sun's Zenith. A duration of 0.06 is used on the second Zenith since Hex doesn't actually apply any potion effects with duration 0.05 or less.
