Seismic Bond is a Companion mod that causes the companion's melee attacks to emit 4-meter shockwaves, as long as a Channeled Ability is active. In addition, the companion's attacks will grant stacking Ability Efficiency to their owner for a brief period.

Notes

• "Channeled abilities" that trigger Seismic Bond are the same abilities that triggers  Arcane Intention. See list below.
  • Channeled ability must be active for both the shockwave and Ability Efficiency bonus to trigger.
• Shockwave does not deal damage to enemies protected with Overguard.
• Shockwave does not proc any status effects, unless paired with  Manifold Bond.
• Shockwave does not trigger  Vicious Bond.
• Ability Efficiency bonus is additive to similar bonuses such as  Streamline
  • Bonus triggers on all damage dealt by your companion.
  • Each stack has its own duration.
