Protection Circle is one of the Chanter's twenty-two Daevanion skills — the twelve actives and ten passives the boards can raise. The boards add +4 levels to it in all, one per node.
On the Daevanion boards
| Board | Nodes | Points to reach |
|---|---|---|
| Nezekan | 2 | 18 |
| Zikel | — | — |
| Vaizel | 1 | 9 |
| Triniel | 1 | 11 |
As a passive it has two nodes on Nezekan and one each on the later boards. Taking all of them costs 38 points if you path to them directly; points shared with other skills on the way cost less. See Protection Circle on the Daevanion planner.
