How to learn Evil Eye

The following manual supplies the book unlock for ranks marked “Manual unlock” in the rank table. Skill points and time are spent when you purchase the rank. See the skill book guide for manual requirements and planning examples.

Find the manual, then choose your critical-cast rank

Evil Eye gives Witchcraft casts a 10% critical chance at rank 1 and 20% at rank 2. The second rank raises the chance by ten percentage points; it does not make every fifth cast a scheduled critical hit.

Learn Lasting Malediction first and obtain Evil Eye Manual. A pickup is in the chest at the kobold nest north of Maragir Wealds Watchtower Shrine. Vera and the Matriarch also provide shop alternatives.

Both ranks require manual access. The first costs one skill point and the second costs two; each takes one time segment. This branch suits a Witchcraft build seeking critical casts, while Witchcraft Mastery addresses its damage bonus and Lasting Malediction its duration.
