Minor PSA to (mostly PVE) Mystics: Don't level Contagion right when you log on.

When you level a skill, its cooldown resets. You can level contagion during a fight to reset its CD and immediately use the debuff again allowing longer uptime. Note that you must be out of combat to do so, however contagion and volley don't put mystics in combat, so that shouldn't be an issue. Since contagion now has 9 levels, you should be able to reset the CD 8 times like this on a character before not being able to do it again.

Since it's not permanent it isn't a big deal, but I figured I share this since there will be many mystics with level 1 contagion right now, and why not take advantage of it?

    This is what happened when I throw Contagion I to Kalivan, KC 355.

    Contagion I got resisted like 3 times so far in my game play and Contagion IX never.
    So if you use low level Contagion, keep an eye on it whether it applies or gets resisted. Just like lancers watching their Debilitate (high chance of getting resisted and lose stacks)

    I can anecdotally report that unleveled contagions get resisted very often.

    Fancy that. I was wondering why they bothered having levels to a debuff skill. I guess there's a resistance to it at lower levels.

    Even if you managed to use it to cheese for the purposes of speedruns, that certain highscore site would consider that an exploit and remove and possibly blacklist your parses anyways.
