|
Instantly relocate to a target's back arc, applying 1 Exposed on arrival. A guaranteed placement, not a dash. Geometry cannot block it. | ||||
| Both Count | — | — | — | |
|
Every strike you land inside a target's back arc applies 1 Exposed, a public state: any ally striking that enemy from behind ignores a stated fraction of its armour, paying into the general Vulnerability bucket. 5 per enemy, 8 enemies party-wide. | ||||
| Backstab | 1 Exposed | — | — | |
|
A strike from the back arc that is a guaranteed critical. Without an Exposed stack it is an ordinary strike. | ||||
| Shadow Dance | 2 Exposed from each target that has them | 0.77 | 15% | |
|
Chain rapid blinks between nearby enemies, striking each from behind in sequence. Consumes 2 Exposed from every target that carries them, doubling that hop. Up to 6 hops. Steep falloff.
| ||||
| Both Blades at Once | all 5 Exposed from one enemy | — | — | |
|
Consumes all 5 Exposed from one enemy. A committed double-strike whose damage scales with the stacks spent, returning a flat amount of health per stack, capped per cast. It will not fire on a partial stack. | ||||
| Afterimage | — | — | — | |
|
Leave behind a decoy. Enemies redirect onto it, relieving you alone and not the party. 1 decoy per caster, 6 party-wide. | ||||
| Curtain | — | — | — | |
|
Drop a veil of darkness. Inside it you are untargetable, enemies lose track of where you were, and their aggro is evicted outright. 1 per caster, 4 party-wide. | ||||
| Momentum of the Dance | 3 Exposed from your current target | — | — | |
|
Consumes 3 Exposed from your current target. Behind You resets immediately and you gain a short burst of movement speed. | ||||
Falloff: per-target damage × n^-k down to Floor, where n is targets hit. k = 0 is no falloff, and — is a spell that states none.
