__NOTOC__
'''Temporal Reversion''' has a chance to activate upon a failed defense against a physical attack ([[melee]], [[bolt]], and [[maneuver]]). A successful activation will 'snap' the [[wizard]] back in time to immediately before the attack occurred and, having knowledge of the oncoming blow, grants the wizard an increase of +200 to their generic [[defensive strength]] (DS) as well as a comparable increase in maneuver defense. The base chance for this to occur is 10%, and can be increased by training in [[Elemental Mana Control]].


==Mana Control Benefit==
Upon receiving a successful physical attack ([[melee]], [[bolt]], and [[maneuver]]), the [[wizard]] can 'snap' back in time to immediately before the attack occured. Having knowledge of the inevitably oncoming blow allows the wizard to face the attack with an increase of +200 to their generic [[defensive strength]] as well as a comparable increase in maneuver defense. The base chance for this to occur is 10%, and is increased by 1% for every 20 skill bonus in [[Elemental Mana Control]] (max 25%).
Training in [[Elemental Mana Control]] (EMC) increases the chance for the reversion to activate by 1% from a base of 10% for every 20 [[skill bonus]]. The maximum achievable activation rate is max 30% with 303 ranks EMC without [[enhancive]]s, and 32% with +40 EMC from enhancive items.

Temporal Reversion has a chance to activate upon a failed defense against a physical attack (melee, bolt, and maneuver). A successful activation will 'snap' the wizard back in time to immediately before the attack occurred and, having knowledge of the oncoming blow, grants the wizard an increase of +200 to their generic defensive strength (DS) as well as a comparable increase in maneuver defense. The base chance for this to occur is 10%, and can be increased by training in Elemental Mana Control.
