High Tide is a Mortal Unique tome with no boss attached: any drop at Threat 25 or higher can turn out to be it, and at that Threat 0.5% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Exalted Firstword Tome — step 6 of the Firstword Tome line, item level 80 and up.
It always rolls the same numbers: +30 Power, +10% Cooldown Recovery, +30% Power, +10% Cooldown Recovery, +25% Power, +39% Projectile Damage, +24% Cooldown Recovery and +40% Critical Damage.
On top of that it carries High Tide — Returning Wave is 3 waves in a 90° fan, each returning at 200%, but it recharges 30% slower.
It is Mortal Arena loot.
Wearing it hands you Returning Wave.
“It came in from three directions and left the same way.”
