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.
How it works
Buffs
The first time you kill a boss, you will get a buff. Each boss has a corresponding buff depending on the focus you choose.
Nemesis Curses
For every 5 bosses you kill, you will get a Nemesis Curse . This curse is taken from the opposite of the focus on the focus wheel.
Enemy Curses
For every 10 bosses you kill, you will get a Enemy Curse . This curse is taken from the focus adjacent to your opposite focus.
This page will list the focus and its curses.
