Enhance qualifying Mana modifiers on jewellery.

The Catalyst adds quality that enhances Mana modifiers on a ring or amulet. It replaces other quality types, preserving the item's modifiers while changing which modifier family its quality supports.

Value the Mana modifiers before replacing existing quality.

Review the target's qualifying Mana modifiers and its current quality type. Use the Catalyst when the Mana improvement is more important than the benefit being removed.

Before you use one

Applying it replaces other quality types. Weak or absent Mana modifiers make the material ineffective for that item.

Mana-focused builds create targeted demand.

Its price follows demand for Mana jewellery. Quality scales qualifying existing modifiers; it does not create Mana where the item has none.
