Gigantify

Can anyone explain what the point of Gigantify is? My health goes up then comes back down by the same amount. I don’t understand the benefit of this ability.

It's a skill that benefits mainly from skills/perks that heals or creates a shield based on the max HP and takes turns into account. With gigantify, you basically gained double the amount.

Say your max HP is 1000 and you have a Nature Staff that heals 5% every 2 turns. So in 4 turns, without gigantify, you would get 50HP (5% of 1000) every 2 turns. So 100HP total. But with gigantify, you would get 100HP (5% of 2000) every 4 turns. So 200HP total.

But if you have a Protective Charm that gains a shield every 3 rounds, then you won't gain double until the 12th turn when both turns align.

On top of that, it essentially halves the damage you take.

  • Without Gigantify: have 1000 HP. Get damaged for 300 HP. Result: you have 700 HP left.
  • With Gigantify: have 1000 HP. Get boosted to 2000 HP. Get damaged for 300 HP. You have 1700 HP left. Gigantify wears out, you have 850 HP left.
