Focuses

Focuses are consumable items that change the focus of Soul Stones, providing benefits for killing bosses. They are crafted with various gems and Arcane Shards at an Alchemical Infuser.

Change the Focus of your Soul Stone by right-clicking a Focus in your Inventory. You are able to freely swap between Focuses as long as you have the respective Focus Stone.

Buffs
Any time you kill a vanilla or Enigma boss, you will get a buff. Each boss has a corresponding buff depending on the focus you choose.

Nemesis Curses
For every 5 unique bosses you kill, you will get a Nemesis Curse. This curse is taken from the opposite of the focus on the focus wheel. On the diagram, it is represented with a capital N.

Enemy Curses
For every 10 unique bosses you kill, you will get two Enemy Curses. This curse is taken from the two focuses adjacent to your opposite focus. On the diagram, it is represented with a capital E.

Tips

 * Equipping a Bloat can prove to be useful as it allows you to proc whatever requires half or less than half health.
 * Capacity Focus's Dungeon Guardian follows after the enemy that hit proc'd it, but it can also hit enemies in its path without stopping.
 * Utility is useful if you're hunting for ores while mining.
 * Despite the Mobility Curse saying "You cannot fly", this seems to only apply to Wings. As a result, Rocket Boots and their upgrades still work.
