Tips and Details

  • The  Enemy DebuffCreeping TerrorEnemy DebuffCreeping Terror stacks will be consumed for the skill's shackling effect, without triggering a Burst of Terror.
  • The initial chain hit reaches just outside the screen, while the additional lunge attack will propel you slightly further forward, making it excellent to approach enemies with, especially with the Powerful trait.
  • The chains can deal splash damage to any nearby enemies, allowing the skill to deal high damage on tightly grouped enemies.
  • The dash strike will hit enemies nearby the main target too, including slightly behind you.
  • While the  Self BuffShackling ChainSelf BuffShackling Chain debuff prevents your opponent from moving or jumping, they are still able to use skills and awaken.
