Damning Eloquence is a 7th Tier feat and requires 30 points in the Avatar tree to unlock. It reduces the cast time of the Inferno Curse and Fiery Enervation spells. Damning Eloquence has three trainable ranks, each rank further decreasing spell cast time. The final rank causes Inferno Curse and Fiery Enervation to become instant cast spells.⁴

Burning Hex is an 8th Tier feat. To unlock the feat, 35 points must have already been spent in Avatar tree and all three ranks of Damning Eloquence must be trained. Burning Hex adds a damage-over-time (DoT) effect to the Inferno Curse and Fiery Enervation spells. It has two trainable ranks.⁴
