Notes
- Potency is 670 prior to learning the Pictomancy Mastery II trait. It continues to increase upon learning subsequent traits at higher levels.
Trivia
- When pictomancer was originally released in patch 7.0, it was approximately a 1% DPS gain to skip casting Thunder in Magenta and cast
Water in Blue instead, as the higher potency of Thunder in Magenta did not outweigh the loss of palette gauge, which was gained from casting Water in Blue. Players have therefore developed unconventional rotations where they clicked off or used a macro to remove the Subtractive Palette or Aetherhues II buffs. This was acknowledged as unintended by Square Enix, and Aetherhues / Aetherhues II were made unable to be manually disabled in patch 7.01.
