Additional InformationAffinityEvery time the weapon handles its script flare the bond increases. The strength of the flares increase with the affinity of the weapon, and maximum affinity is limited by unlock tier.

Energy FlaresUpon blocking an attack in an aggressive stance, or launching an offensive shield attack you have a chance to strike your enemy with energy. These are the default flares of the energy shields. Each flare will fill the affinity for the process of attuning. The strength of the flare increases per affinity gained.
PULL (DRAINED FLARES) will allow you to turn ON or OFF the storage of Energy at the cost of reduced flared strength. This energy is used to empower flares later. PUSH (SURGED FLARES) turns on or off the surged flares. Surged flares are increased in power at the cost of energy stored from DRAINED flares. You cannot have both drained and surged flares on at the same time. Example combat with the standard Energy Flares on shield attack or incoming attack: An Ithzir adept swings a closed fist at you!
