Class skill

Smokescreen

Tap Smoke to vanish and avoid enemy damage. Your next hit is a guaranteed critical hit. Landing that hit ends invisibility early.

Rank Invisibility Critical damage Cooldown
1 1.5s 150% of normal damage 2.5s
2 1.75s 158% of normal damage 2.35s
3 2s 165% of normal damage 2.2s

The critical damage values are total damage, not extra damage. The guaranteed critical hit stays ready after invisibility ends until you land it.

The recharge timer starts on activation and uses the full invisibility duration plus the cooldown shown above. Before Skill Haste, the skill is ready again 4s at Rank 1, 4.1s at Rank 2, 4.2s at Rank 3 after activation.

This skill is shared by the Assassin class path. See skill upgrades for costs and how to upgrade.
