  • Catalysts that halve your spellcasts (Tin Crystallization/Manus) will cause you to have 0 casts of Power Within if you only have one copy of the spell equipped.
  • Increases all damage by 40% and stamina regeneration by 30 points, but constantly drains HP at the rate of 1% of max HP per second, rounded down. For example, a player with 573 health will take 5 damage per second while Power Within is active.
  • Damage taken per second does not increase when upgrading the Pyromancy Flame
  • Damage increase doesn't seem to affect damage from Dragon Head Stone's flame
  • When used with the Ring of Favor and Protection, Tiny Being's Ring, Mask of the Mother and/or being Cursed, the damage received per second will be based upon the modified max HP (i.e., base max HP plus/minus the bonus(es)/penalty from the ring(s)/mask/status). For example, at 50 VIT with 1500 HP, equipping the Ring of Favor and Protection will increase max HP to 1800. This means the loss of 18 HP (1%) per second until the duration ends or the character dies.
  • Power Within can be used to increase damage output to trigger the Overkill mechanic for a 20% increase in souls obtained from enemies
  • Counts as personal buff. Cannot stack with these items/spells: Fall Control
    Bountiful Sunlight, Chameleon, Elizabeth's Mushroom, Flash Sweat, Great Magic Barrier, Green Blossom, Hidden Body, Hush, Iron Flesh, Karmic Justice, Magic Barrier, Replenishment, Transient Curse,
