Tactics

This is one of the better defensive abilities in the game. Intervention can not only heal and shield any friendly unit, its duration is long too. Upgrading it to tier 10 requires a large number of ability points, which may be better spent elsewhere.

Intervention Cheese is an incredibly powerful strategy. By maxing it out and equipping it four times on your action bar, you can keep yourself and Veradux shielded indefinitely. (You may need to spare one point for Blood Focus if Veradux is being stingy with his Re-Energize.)

Trivia

• The in-game description erroneously states that Intervention's buff lasts 9 turns while it actually lasts 8 turns. How healing scales with Strength and Magic is also wrong.
• Pally Intervention is nearly identical, but has a larger cost and cooldown.
• Block's icon has a recolor to this ability.
• Although not mentioned in the description, this buff stacks with itself (both the shield and the healing).
