Notes

Anomaly:

The cast time of the tooltip updates to 2s once you have filled the level 1 bar of adrenaline, and 1.75s at level 2 and level 3.

Bug:

The tooltip says 9 strikes, but the number of hits depends on the adrenaline level, see note below.

• More hits at higher adrenaline levels. 81 damage (coefficient 0.33) and 1 stack of bleeding per hit.
  • Level 1: 6 hits
  • Level 2: 7 hits
  • Level 3: 8 hits
• The cast time stays the same regardless of adrenalin level.
• This skill cleaves.
