Stacks refresh independently, and generating a new one does not reset the timers for the others.

  • Ferocity benefits builds that rely on fast combo cycles or rapid Spirit generation.
  • Maintaining Ferocity stacks requires consistent combat engagement.
  • Ferocity often appears alongside Resolve, the Spiritborn’s defensive momentum mechanic.
