When used in the air after learning Victory Survival Strategy, you will be propelled slightly up after the skill is used, in an identical fashion to the final hit of .
- The skill can follow up very neatly after any of your aerial command attacks if close enough to an enemy, or immediately after Flame Sword.
  - For some reason while Flame Sword can be used at any point after this skill in midair, this skill can only be used directly after Flame Sword, and not while falling.
The smoke does no damage nor inflict any hitstun, but the "hit" sound effect still plays for enemies inside it, for a total of 15 times. Every time an enemy is "hit" the debuff's duration will reset, resulting in a total debuff duration of 5 seconds.
- Despite the hit sound, when using the Persistent trait, only the explosion will reduce Knockdown, the smoke will not.

Privacy Policy	Between its initial release and the 08/06/2015 KR patch, Haze Explosion did not create a haze which decreased Action and Movement Speed, instead inflicting a debuff which decreased Evasion. It did have a Skill Note which did cause it to create a smoke cloud which did additional damage.
