— In-game description

Collective Unconscious is an action unlocked by questing at level 58. It is available for Astrologian.

Notes

• This action gives 3 buff icons:
  • Wheel of Fortune (15s): This is the 15s regen, and still persists even if the zone is exited.
  • Collective Unconscious (18s): This is the timer for the zone. If you move, then this buff and the zone disappears.
  • Collective Unconscious (5s): This is the 5s damage reduction. This gets applied upon entering the zone, and persists even if the zone is exited. If you stay in the zone, then the 5s timer gets refreshed every 3s.
• It is generally not necessary to stand still for the action's entire duration (also known as "channeling") - just set up the regen (15s) and damage reduction (5s), and then start acting again as to not delay your global cooldown too much. Channeling simply allows the damage reduction to keep refreshing itself, and is only advisable when no enemies are targetable.
