Notes

Pictomancer's basic spell combo ( Fire in Red, Aero in Green, Water in Blue) and its AoE variants ( Fire II in Red, Aero II in Green, Water II in Blue) will be replaced with stronger variants of those spells, all of which have a greater cast time (i.e. Fire in Red becomes Blizzard in Cyan).
- One stack of Subtractive Palette will be spent when executing any of those actions.
- The effects of Subtractive Palette cannot be manually removed (i.e. right-clicked off the buff bar).
- It is ill-advised to execute this action during or immediately before movement-heavy mechanics.
Having one stack of White Paint before execution of this action is not required, as Monochrome Tones is a buff that will convert the next stack of White Paint from Thunder in Magenta and Thunder II in Magenta into Black Paint, allowing usage of Comet in Black.
The effect of Monochrome Tones does not stack, meaning only one usage of Comet in Black can be saved. Executing Subtractive Palette will result in a lost usage of Comet in Black when already under the effect of Monochrome Tones.
