Salvation

• Invoking Harmony — Healing done to other allies is increased for a short duration after invoking a legend.
• Serene Rejuvenation — Increase healing to other allies. Legendary Centaur skills apply boons in an area.
• Generous Abundance — Heal allies around yourself when using a Legend skill. Heal allies around Ventari's Tablet when using a Legendary Centaur skill. Dragon Facet skills and Ventari's Will cannot activate this trait.
• Unyielding Devotion — Take reduced strike damage for a duration after healing. Lasts longer if you heal an ally other than yourself.

Devastation

• Notoriety — Might grants you more power and less condition damage. Gain might when using a legendary stance skill.

Notes

• The hammers rotate at a speed that will hit static enemies about 3 times per second.
• The heal is applied every time the hammers hit any enemy; thus, this skill can hit and heal ~15 times per second if all 3 hammers hit 5 targets every second.
• The hammers themselves (i.e. the damaging part of this skill) have a maximum duration of 3 minutes and 17 seconds.

Patch	Changes
October 26, 2021	Multiplicative damage reduction enhancements have been updated to display how much damage was reduced by rather than displaying how much the damage is multiplied by. For example, protection now displays "-33% Damage" instead of "67% damage." This is not a change to functionality; it is only a change to display the bonus in a more intuitively understandable way.
October 05, 2021	All effects that provide a percentage reduction to incoming damage have been standardized to stack multiplicatively.
July 07, 2020	This skill can now be activated while in midair.
May 08, 2018	The energy upkeep of this skill is no longer split between game modes and will now use the lower 6-energy cost in all modes. (Undocumented) This skill can now be used underwater.
March 28, 2018	Fixed a bug in which Vengeful Hammers would give Hardening Persistence even if the trait was not equipped.
March 27, 2018	Reduced the upkeep cost from 7 to 6 in PvP and WvW.
September 22, 2017	Path of Fire release: Fixed a bug that displayed incorrect healing values.
August 08, 2017	Path of Fire pre-patch: Added a third hammer and reduced damage by 33% to preserve approximate damage per second. Changed the base function of this skill so you can no longer lose projectiles as a result of passing too close to uneven terrain. This skill has been unsplit from PvP, using the increased healing values in all game types.
June 20, 2017	The base healing of this skill has been increased by 43% in PvP only.
February 22, 2017	Increased the base damage of this skill by 100%.
