| Description | Fire a bolt of distortion that ignores resistance and inflicts [10]150cTMD physical damage. This damage will distort affected targets, decreasing physical resistance by (number of talent points in Distortion)% and rendering them vulnerable to distortion effects for 2 turns.
If the bolt comes in contact with a target that's already distorted, a detonation will occur, inflicting 150% of the base damage in a radius of 1.3–2.7cTS. Investing in this talent will increase the physical resistance reduction from all of your distortion effects. At talent level 5, you learn to shape your distortion effects, preventing them from hitting you or your allies. Note: Distortion Bolts will still collide with allies even if they are harmless at talent level 5 or above, so aim them carefully and take their relatively slow default projectile speed (10 tiles per turn) into account. | |

| Description | Creates a distortion wave in a radius 4–8cTS cone that deals [10]150cTMD physical damage and knocks back targets in the blast radius.
This damage will distort affected targets, decreasing physical resistance by (number of talent points in Distortion)% and rendering them vulnerable to distortion effects for 2 turns. Investing in this talent will increase the physical resistance reduction from all of your distortion effects. If the target is already distorted, they'll be stunned for 2–4cTS turns as well. | |

| Description | Ravages the target with distortion, inflicting [10]50cTMD physical damage each turn for 5–9cTS turns.
This damage will distort affected targets, decreasing physical resistance by (number of talent points in Distortion)% and rendering them vulnerable to distortion effects for 2 turns. If the target is already distorted when Ravage is applied, the damage will be increased by 50% and the target will lose one beneficial physical effect or sustain each turn. Investing in this talent will increase the physical resistance reduction from all of your distortion effects. | |

| Description | Create a powerful maelstorm for 5–9cTS turns. Each turn, the maelstrom will pull in targets within a radius of (1 + Talent Level / 3) rounded up, to a maximum of 4, and inflict [10]50cTMD physical damage.
This damage will distort affected targets, decreasing physical resistance by (number of talent points in Distortion)% and rendering them vulnerable to distortion effects for 2 turns. Investing in this talent will increase the physical resistance reduction from all of your distortion effects. Note: The pull effect is checked against knockback resistance and cannot affect various pinned or immobilized targets. | |
