Bladestorm is a melee attack skill that creates a bladestorm that continuously deals damage in an area for a short duration.
Skill functions and interactions
Bladestorm has two components: an initial melee attack that deals damage around the player, and a lingering blood or stand storm that will repeatedly (based on attack speed) deal 50% of melee damage to enemies within its area.
This skill interacts with Blood and Sand Stance:
- In Blood Stance, the bladestorm will be stationary and deal more bleeding damage.
- In Sand Stance, the bladestorm will travel forward (in the direction of the player's cursor position on-attack), blind enemies standing in it, and grant the user increased movement speed while standing in it.
In either stance, Bladestorm will have more attack speed while inside a blood bladestorm.
Because hits do not snapshot, existing storms will account for any changes to the skill's stats, including attack rate.[1]
