How to use talismans

Talismans in L2

You need a special item — a bracelet. Its type decides how many talismans the char can use at once. Open inventory and you’ll see the slot. After you equip the bracelet, you can use talismans.

Iron Bracelet — 1 slot.

Bronze Bracelet — 2 slots.

Steel Bracelet — 3 slots.

Mithril Bracelet — 4 slots.

Bracelets are bought in a castle or fortress from Supply Captain for Knight’s Epaulettes.

Orange

 These craft HP / MP / CP restore elixirs. There are only three:

  • Orange Talisman of Elixir of Life — creates 1   Elixir of Life (A-Grade),
  • Orange Talisman of Elixir of Mental Strength — creates 1 Elixir of Mental Strength (A-Grade).

Get them in a castle or fortress for 10 Knight’s Epaulettes.

What you need to know when using them

1 Every talisman has its own mana pool, 60 by default. It drains in a few ways:

  • Unequip/equip — 1 each time.
  • While equipped it slowly burns mana, so take them off if you’re not using them.
  • Using the active skill costs a set amount — different for each talisman.

When talisman mana hits 0, you can’t use it anymore.

2 Active talisman skills are ready only 30 seconds after you equip them. If you’re flying to oly and the talisman isn’t ready, put it on before you TP to the arena and the skill will already be off cooldown.

3 All talisman skills have their own cooldown. Some, like Red Talisman – Life Force, are very long.

4 Effects from two or more identical talismans don’t stack. Exception: yellow talismans with the same effect, one from the shop and one from fortress/castle, can be used together — e.g. Yellow Talisman of Speed.

5 Active skills need some MP on the char, about 40. If you don’t have it, you can’t use the skill.
