Version history /11

Version	Changes
3.24.0	Fixed a bug where Blink Arrow of Prismatic Clones and Mirror Arrow of Prismatic Clones could not deal chaos damage with the fire version of its attack. For clarity, the skill used by these minions converts all physical damage to the chosen element, deals no elemental damage of non-chosen elements, and can add chaos damage and inflict poison regardless of the chosen element. Fixed a bug where Blink Arrow of Prismatic Clones and Mirror Arrow of Prismatic Clones could not deal chaos damage with the fire version of its attack. For clarity, the skill used by these minions converts all physical damage to the chosen element, deals no elemental damage of non-chosen elements, and can add chaos damage and inflict poison regardless of the chosen element.
3.21.0	Clarity has 100% increased Mana Reservation Efficiency
3.20.0	Some other build-enabling Jewels that affect Golems can no longer drop but can be found from another more deterministic source. While we want you to discover this new source on your own during gameplay, we will say for clarity that these Jewels do not come from vendor recipes.
3.19.0	Vaal Clarity Vaal Clarity Problem: Vaal Clarity's relatively low soul cost allows you to consistently bypass the mana costs of skills with high costs but long durations with proper timing while clearing areas. It is currently too easy to achieve this. Solution: Increase the soul cost of Vaal Clarity and slightly increase its duration. Vaal Clarity now has a cost 50 Souls per use (previously 30), and has a duration of 10 seconds at all gem levels (previously 8 seconds at gem Level 1, up to 9.90 at gem Level 20).
3.13.0	Clarity Anomalous Clarity now causes you and nearby allies to have 0.25% increased Mana Recovery from Flasks per 1% gem quality (from 0.5% per 1% gem quality). Divergent Clarity now grants you and nearby allies 0.25% increased damage per 1% gem quality (from 1% per 1% gem quality).
3.12.0	Vitality now grants flat life regeneration based on the level of the gem, and reserves a flat amount of mana (similar to Clarity and Precision). It can be used to more rapidly enable builds which rely on life regeneration to function (such as Righteous Fire) at lower levels, and no longer disproportionately rewards high-life builds. Clarity Watcher's Eye: Can now grant 10 to 15% increased Energy Shield Recovery Rate while affected by Discipline (from 20 to 30%). Can now grant 6 to 10% of Maximum Mana as Extra Maximum Energy Shield while affected by Clarity (from 12 to 18%). Can now grant 10 to 15% increased Mana Recovery Rate while affected by Clarity (from 20 to 30%). Can now grant 10 to 15% increased Life Recovery Rate while affected by Vitality (from 20 to 30%). Can now grant 0.8 to 1.2% of Damage leeched as Life while affected by Vitality (from 1 to 1.5%). Can now grant 8 to 12% increased Recovery rate of Life and Energy Shield while affected by Malevolence (from 15 to 20%). Can now grant +20 to 30% to Critical Strike Multiplier while affected by Precision (from 30 to 50%). Existing versions can be updated with the use of a Divine Orb. New versions can now grant 1 to 1.5% of Life Regenerated per second while affected by Vitality (instead of 100 to 140 Life Regeneration per second). Existing versions of this item with this modifier are unaffected. Clarity can now be purchased from Nessa by all characters who have completed The Caged Brute.
3.8.0	Clarity Watcher's Eye: Can no longer gain +% to Cold and Chaos Damage over Time Multipliers while affected by Malevolence. Instead now has +% to Damage over Time Multipliers while affected by Malevolence. This affected all versions of the item. The mana cost reduction while affected by Clarity now specifically applies to non-channeled skills. The mana leech while affected by Wrath is now Energy Shield leech while affected by Wrath. These two changes do NOT affect existing items, and cannot be obtained with a Divine Orb.
3.5.0	Vaal Haste, Vaal Grace, Vaal Clarity, Vaal Discipline, Vaal Impurity of Fire, Vaal Impurity of Lightning, Vaal Impurity of Ice, Vaal Molten Shell, Vaal Righteous Fire and Gluttony of Elements (from the Blood of Corruption unique amulet) are now all instant, with a very short cooldown.
3.4.0	The following skills are now instant by default and can therefore be used while moving: Blood Rage, Righteous Fire, Molten Shell, Haste, Vitality, Discipline, Grace, Determination, Anger, Hatred, Wrath, Clarity, Envy, Arctic Armour, Purity of Fire, Purity of Ice, Purity of Lightning, Purity of Elements, Convocation, Herald of Ash, Herald of Ice, Herald of Thunder, Phase Run, Aspect of the Cat, Aspect of the Avian, Aspect of the Spider and Aspect of the Crab. Vaal Clarity
3.3.0	Vaal Clarity
2.0.0	Clarity: Reduced the cost and amount of mana regeneration it grants at all levels. Vaal Clarity: Base duration increased by 2 seconds.

Clarity

Clarity is an aura that grants mana regeneration to the caster and their allies.

Skill Functions and Interactions

See the aura page for more details.

At level 20, Clarity's mana regeneration is equivalent to the natural mana regeneration of 1886 mana.

When the player has a large amount of life but little mana and needs both the regeneration and other mana-reserving skills, linking this with Arrogance Support might be a consideration. Beware the high reservation multiplier, however.

As Clarity reserves a flat amount of mana (whereas other Auras reserve a percentage), it can often be used at a low level without overly compromising the mana available for active skills.
