Veil of Blades: Conjure a ring of shadow, reducing the Movement Speed of enemies by 70%, dealing [3811 / 3853 / 3895 / 3936] Magic Damage to them every 1 second, and granting you and your allies Major Protection, reducing your damage taken by 10%.

Consuming Darkness casts an aura of protection over the area and slows down enemy movement in the area. Allies with low Health can activate the ON-icon-synergy-Hidden Refresh.png Hidden Refresh synergy, which grants them Invisibility, increases their movement speed, and restores their Health for 4 seconds. The Bolstering Darkness morph reduces your damage taken of you and your allies for a short duration after leaving the effect, while Veil of Blades adds damage over time to enemies in the area.

Notes[edit]

  • Bolstering Darkness is a recommended morph for the Living Shadow build.

Patch Notes[edit]

  • Veil of Blades: This ability can now critical strike.
  • Reduced the duration of this ability to 12 seconds.
  • This ability will no longer provide an additional damage reduction for the caster.
  • Hidden Refresh (synergy): This will now provide healing to allies, and will only be offered to allies under 50% health.
  • Bolstering Darkness: This ability doubles the effectiveness of the Major Protection buff on yourself.
  • Dark Resurgence (synergy): This synergy, offered by Bolstering Darkness, will provide more healing for the ally that activates it.
  • Bolstering Darkness: Fixed an issue where the caster was only receiving a 30% damage reduction instead of the full 60%.
  • Bolstering Darkness: Increased the healing from the Hidden Refresh synergy from this morph by 20%.
  • Bolstering Darkness: This morph now causes the Major Protection buff to remain on you even after leaving the area. The buff will persist for the duration of the ability.
  • Veil of Blades: Fixed an issue where this ability was not getting stronger as the ability ranked up. Total damage at Rank IV will be increased by 6.6%.
  • Fixed an issue where the synergy granted from this ability and its morphs could only be activated when at a certain health threshold, which was not previously communicated. It can now be activated any time when you meet the listed requirements and are not on cooldown.
  • Hidden Refresh’s heal now ticks once every second, rather than half second, and adjusted the total healing to remain roughly the same.
  • While this synergy is active, it now displays what it does when hovered over in your Active Effects tab.
