''Long ago, the marauders of Oriath perfected a devastating battle technique - the ferocious Leap Slam. With a guttural cry, the leaper hurtles forward and smashes the ground at the feet of the enemy. The force from this blow deals substantial damage in a circle around the targeted spot, and will even knock back and stun. The Leap Slam is useful not only as an offensive technique, but also because it can serve, in a pinch, to escape from danger. The Marauders of Oriath were famous for attacking their foes from above, leaping down from high ledges to crush their enemies' skulls.''
'''Leap Slam''' is an [[attack]] [[skill]] that performs a leap to a target area, damaging and knocking back enemies landed on. It is guaranteed to [[stun]] enemies at full life.
The player leaps through the air, damaging enemies where they land. Some enemies are knocked backwards. As the skill levels up, damage increases. Higher quality Leap Slam gems cause enemies to be stunned for longer. Requires an axe, mace, sword, two-handed axe, two-handed mace, two-handed sword, or staff.
==Skill functions and interactions==
__TOC__
* Leap Slam has an instant startup when not used continuously. The cooldown between regaining its instant startup time seems to be based on attack speed.
==Skill Functions and Interactions==
Attack Speed: Like [[Ground Slam]], this skill has its own duration, which is modified by, but not equal to, the player's attack speed. Leap Slam may seem slow when jumping small distances, but in reality, Leap Slam is simply always performed at the same modified speed regardless of the distance jumped.
Dual Wielding: Leap Slam will use only the main hand weapon.
* '''[[Accuracy]]''': Accuracy is a factor despite the nature of the skill. Leap Slam can miss.
Maximum Range: Leap Slam has one.
* '''[[Attack speed]]''': Leap Slam has an attack time of your weapon's base attack time plus .55 seconds. Local attack speed modifiers apply to the base attack time of your weapon before the addition of .55 seconds. Global modifiers to attack speed will modify the speed at which Leap Slam performs. Leap Slam may seem slow when jumping small distances, but in reality, Leap Slam is simply always performed at the same modified speed regardless of the distance jumped.
Attack speed can be calculated with this formula: {{math |formula=(1 + G) \times {1 \over {1 \over B \times (1 + L)} + .55} }}, where B is the base attack speed of your weapon, L is the local attack speed modifier, and G is the total global attack speed modifier applicable to your weapon type. Since weapons already list the locally modified attack speed, you can use this formula instead: {{math |formula=(1 + G) \times {1 \over {1 \over W} + .55} }}, where W is the weapon's attack speed after local modifiers have been taken into account.
==Gem Leveling==
* '''[[Dual wielding]]''': While dual wielding, hits are dealt with either the main or off-hand weapon. If one of your weapons is not compatible with leap slam, you will be unable to use leap slam.
* {{il|Multistrike Support}}: Leap Slam cannot be supported by Multistrike.
Each percentage of [[Quality|quality]] adds +1% Increased [[Stun|stun]] duration.
* The maximum jumping distance of Leap Slam is confined by a square rectangle centered around the attacker. This means that the actual maximum distance will be √2 times as long, roughly 41% longer, jumping diagonally as it would be jumping straight up, down, left or right. Since the duration of the jump is the same regardless of distance, you will also end up travelling about 41% faster that way. {{il|Flame Dash}} and Leap Slam seem to be the only two skills that work this way, all other skills have their max-range defined by a circle as one would expect.
===Strategy===
Leap Slam is primarily used as a movement skill. Leap Slam can be used to cross cliffs, chasms, and obstacles. {{il|Faster Attacks Support}} is a good support for this purpose as it will increase the speed of travel.

Quest reward
This item is given as a quest reward for the following quests:
Note that helmet enchantments are no longer obtainable since version 3.23.0 and can only be obtained in permanent leagues as already enchanted items from before this patch.
Improved the behaviour of some travel skills when repeated through Echoing Shrine or the Echoist modifier gained by killing monsters. Flame Dash, Whirling Blades and Dash now repeat in the same direction as the initial use. Shield Charge is now able to repeat, though only the larger area attack performed upon reaching your target is repeated. Attacking in place with Leap Slam now repeats in the same direction as the initial use.
Now uses weapon attack time +0.55 seconds, rather than overriding your base attack time. While base weapon speed will have some effect, this change is intended to reduce the travel speed difference between characters using weapons local attack speed modifiers and characters who are not.
