The Impaler
Inflict 4 additional Impales on Enemies you Impale
For 4 seconds after you Impale Enemies, they cannot be Impaled again, and Impales cannot be Called from them [1]
The Impaler is a keystone passive skill. Whenever you impale a target, it applies four additional impales and also applies it to nearby enemies, but prevents them from receiving impale for 4 seconds.
Mechanics
The Impaler changes your attacks to cause them to inflict 4 additional impale hits. This gives a total of 5 impales instead of 1. The downside to this is no impales for 4 seconds on enemies after the impale effect. This can be particularly strong when 1 skill has much more impale damage than others.
- Example: A character uses Vaal ground slam as their first hit on an enemy with the Impaler. The next 5 hits will activate 5 times the impale damage than vaal ground slam did before, but they will not apply new impale stacks themselves. A fast attack skill like cyclone will activate the 5 vaal ground slam impales faster.
Party
The impaler prevents all impales on enemies from all sources. If other players are scaling impale damage this can potentially lower the overall damage of the group. Therefore when joining a party with strangers, telling other people about this might help the groups overall damage.
Other party members hits activate your impale damage faster than solo play.
Location
The Impaler is located on the south side of the tree, on the left side of outer part of the Duelist's area.
