The idea is to get out of stun faster than {{MonsterIcon|Terran}} can attack if you're under the effect of his slow (+33% attack interval inflicted by Grasping Roots). Weapons with a 2.6 second attack interval will get away in time, however weapons with a 3.0 second interval will not without the use of interval reduction bonuses. Therefore, it is only safe to use {{ItemIcon|Cloudburst Staff}} while using {{Icon|Surge I|type=aurora}} or {{Icon|Surge II|type=aurora}} at this point of progression. | The idea is to get out of stun faster than {{MonsterIcon|Terran}} can attack if you're under the effect of his slow (+33% attack interval inflicted by Grasping Roots).

However, be aware that this will cost a lot of runes, and running out of them will put you in danger of dying. {{PetIcon|Otto}} or {{ItemIcon|Elder Crown}} in the passive slot will avoid the need to spend {{ItemIcon|Air Rune|Air Runes}} on Surge Auroras, making this particular method effectively foolproof. | ||
