Trivia

• When Any Means Necessary still had a cool-down, the Auras of dropped Pallets would be hidden while it was active.
• Unlike Windows of Opportunity, Any Means Necessary does not reveal the Auras of Illusionary Pallets conjured in their dropped state by the Madness Status Effect.
  • This is because those Pallets cannot be interacted with, which is a prerequisite for Any Means Necessary, whereas Windows of Opportunity just shows Auras.
