Related traits

Spite

• Bitter Chill — Chilling a foe inflicts vulnerability.
• Awaken the Pain — Might grants you more power and less condition damage. Gain might when entering shroud.

Curses

• Insidious Disruption — Disabling a foe inflicts torment on them. Disables include stun, daze, knockback, pull, knockdown, sink, float, launch, taunt, and fear.
• Target the Weak — Increases critical-hit chance for each condition on the foe. Gain condition damage based on your precision.

Death Magic

• Corrupter's Fervor — Inflicting a condition on a foe grants carapace. Gain pulsing protection while at or above the carapace threshold.

Reaper

• Shroud Knight — Death Shroud is replaced with Reaper's Shroud, which has more melee-oriented skills and consumes life force at a faster rate. Gain access to shouts.
• Augury of Death — Shouts now siphon health. This effect is increased on foes in melee range.
• Chilling Nova — Critical hits against chilled foes cause an explosion that chills adjacent foes.
• Chilling Victory — Striking a chilled foe grants might and life force. Single attacks can activate this trait more than once before recharging.
• Cold Shoulder — Chill lasts longer, and chilled foes take increased strike damage from your attacks.
• Blighter's Boon — Gain life force when you apply a boon to yourself or remove a boon from an enemy. If you are in reaper's shroud, gain health instead.
• Deathly Chill — Chill deals damage over time.

Notes

• All boons granted are per hit, allowing up to 5 applications when 5 targets are hit.

Bugs:

• The Defiance Break tooltip sums up the two exclusive stuns instead of correctly displaying the range-dependent value.
• The tooltip states 10 seconds of  Quickness is granted while the actual duration is only 5 seconds.

Anomaly:

This skill is listed as applying Stun but actually applies  Reaper's Frost, which functions the same as Stun.
