Understand Peaceful Provocation
Useful when…
- Use Pacify when ally damage can contribute to an enemy-slow aura.
- Use Provoke when dealing enemy damage to build the augment’s Ability Strength bonus.
- Compare with Calm & Frenzy or Duality if you want to modify Rest & Rage spread or Metamorphosis instead.
How do Pacify and Provoke work with it?
With Pacify active, damage done to allies is converted into an aura that slows enemies. The slow is 20% at rank 0, 35% at rank 2, and 40% at rank 3. With Provoke, damage done to enemies converts into extra Ability Strength: 6% at rank 0, 12% at rank 2, and 15% at rank 3. These are separate effects tied to their respective abilities; the supplied details do not specify further scaling or duration behavior.
Mod slot and rank costs
This is a standard Equinox mod with Zenurik polarity, base drain 6, and maximum rank 3. Its final rank step costs 120 Endo and 5,796 Credits, improving both listed maxima to a 40% slow and 15% extra Ability Strength. The earlier ranks already provide smaller versions of both benefits, so the final investment is most relevant when those increases justify the cost.
Other Equinox augments
Calm & Frenzy makes killing an affected enemy spread Rest & Rage’s effect to enemies within 5 meters for 100% of the remaining duration. Duality changes Metamorphosis by freeing Equinox’s other half for 10 seconds, with the description listing 300% Damage. Those augments affect different abilities and are not direct replacements for Peaceful Provocation. Push & Pull is identified as a Conclave Metamorphosis augment, with stagger and knockdown effects when switching forms.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Its effects require the relevant ability and damage condition: ally damage for Pacify, enemy damage for Provoke.
- Uses a standard mod slot and has base drain 6.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Mixing up the triggers: Pacify converts damage done to allies, while Provoke converts damage done to enemies.
- Assuming the listed bonus is automatic without the corresponding ability and damage condition.
