Trivia

  • Due to having potency, this action was used as often as possible to maximize damage, though at the risk of hurling oneself off of the arena if positioned poorly. In patch 5.0, Engagement (which does not cause a backstep) was added but had a lower potency, making it a safer option at the cost of damage. As of patch 6.0, it and Engagement have the same potency, so this action is now unnecessary to use unless specifically wanting the backstep.
