Vaal Blade Flurry

For the non-Vaal counterpart, see Blade Flurry.

Vaal Blade Flurry is a Vaal channeling melee attack skill. Upon use, the user will charge up stages in an expanding circle around the user, increasing its potential area and damage per stage. Upon ending the channeling or automatically upon reaching 90 stages, it will deal a smaller area attack to each enemy in the circle.

Skill functions and interactions

• Can't be evaded: Vaal Blade Flurry ignores accuracy and evasion rating for hit chance calculations.
• 50% less Damage Taken while Channeling: While channeling, all damage taken is halved to compensate for the inability to move the character outside of instant Blink skills or triggered movement skills.
• Blind: enemies within the circle during channeling are blinded, and also inflicts blind on hit. The skill has an innate increased effect of blind.
• Area of effect: scaling area of effect for this skill will reduce the time required to hit 90 stages, effectively serving as a more multiplier to attack speed and reducing overall channeling time.
