Banish's Mechanic

[Repiru]

Si banish has a duration right? And I can recast it. If I recast it, will all the affected enemies' banish effect will be removed?

[Trichouette]

Cast banish on target > they get sent into the rift for a duration

Cast banish on target that is in the rift > they get sent back into the real world

THEN you can cast banish on them again to refresh the duration

[Tsoe]

banish can be used only on enemies on the same plan

If you don't roll after casting once, no you technically can't recast it on affected enemies because they aren't in the same plane as you.

Which means you can continuously spam Banish to bring them all into the opposite plane, without worrying about having a mix of Banished and unbanished enemies, because they're always not on your plane when talking about using Banish only.

If you use Rift Surge, you can recast Banish to both bring in and push out enemies while you are in the Rift.

Rift surge pushes out enemies? I thought it constantly brings enemies in the rift?

I meant it as you have the option to do both if you combo Rift Surge with Banish, if you stay in the Rift during the combo.

For example:

Banish enemies into Rift -> You Rift Walk -> do a Rift Surge -> Banish surged enemies to bring others into Rift -> Banish that group again to throw them out to normal plane.

Rift Surge makes enemies that leave the rift do a radial blast. Killing rift surged enemies will add the proc to another enemy in the rift, if there are any.
