[edit] Notes

  • This is a projectile spell. While shortly after its introduction the projectile moved extremely slowly, the projectile is now among the fastest of all and rarely misses.
  • Good source of somewhat heavy spammable damage, for it has a low recharge and energy.
  • If the target struck is moving, the damage is dealt in two "packets"; this is useful for avoiding the effects of e.g. Protective Spirit.
  • Unreliable as a spike-assist skill in GvG et al., as spike targets are often knocked down and will not suffer the secondary damage.
