Path of Exile 2 Zarokh's Refrain FAQs

Why does Zarokh's Refrain apply a cooldown to supported spells?

The cooldown ensures balance by limiting how often a spell can be echoed. Without it, high-impact AoE spells could be spammed repeatedly, trivializing encounters and breaking pacing.

What happens if I socket Zarokh's Refrain into a skill that already has a cooldown?

It won't work. Zarokh's Refrain cannot support skills that already have a cooldown, are triggered, channeled, or remote-cast. These exclusions prevent unintended stacking or echo conflicts.

Do the echoes consume additional mana or resources?

No. The echoes are free repeats of the original cast and do not consume additional mana, charges, or infusions. However, the cooldown prevents immediate recasting until the delay expires.

Can I scale the delay between echoes or modify their timing?

Not directly. The echo delay is fixed and cannot be modified by cast speed, cooldown recovery, or other modifiers. However, you can build around the rhythm to maximize overlapping AoE.

Is Zarokh's Refrain viable in single-target boss fights or only for mapping?

It's viable in both. While the echoes shine in area clearing, they also allow for burst damage windows in boss fights—especially when paired with curses, corpse explosions, or delayed detonations.
