Charged Dash is a channeled lightning melee skill. It projects an illusion forward, which can be steered with the cursor while it moves. Waves of area damage are released from the player to the illusion, dealing damage around the path it has traveled. Releasing the channel creates a final wave and teleports the attacker to where the illusion was.

Skill functions and interactions

Skill mechanics

  • Steering: The illusion's movement direction can be steered while channelling until the maximum distance is reached or the illusion hits impassable terrain. Charged Dash can cross gaps and regular vertical distances. On PC, the illusion will move in the relative direction of the cursor compared to the player's character (or the center of the screen).
  • Travel Distance: The maximum travel distance in a linear direction is 6.0 metres.[1] This can be exceeded somewhat by making the illusion move in a non-linear path.[2] Comparatively, a player's base (100%) movement speed is 3.8 metres per second. The time in seconds it takes to reach maximum distance can be calculated with the following formula:
Travel time = 60 / (38 * (1 + 0.01m) * (1.3 + 0.01q))
where:
m = #% increased Movement Speed
q = #% Quality of Charged Dash
  • Stages: Stages are gained while the illusion is moving, at a rate equivalent to your attack time.[3] The theoretical number of achievable stages at maximum distance can be calculated by multiplying travel time * attack time. Stages are capped at a maximum of 15.[4] Curving the path of the illusion (e.g. making small loops) will also increase the total travel time slightly, sometimes increasing the number of achievable stages. Increasing movement speed will reduce the time the illusion can move, therefore reducing the achievable number of stages.
  • Waves: Waves will pulse at a rate equivalent to twice your attack time.[5] Each wave deals damage in multiple areas along the illusion's path. Movement speed and attack speed do not affect the distance intervals of these areas. Each area has its own chance to hit, but a given target can only be hit once per wave.[6] After the illusion stops moving, waves will deal 250% of base damage every two attack times instead.
  • Final wave: Releasing the channel will create a final wave. Like waves released while channelling, enemies cannot be hit by multiple areas.[7] This hit deals 75% * # of stages of base wave damage.
  • Area of Effect: The area of the waves scales with area of effect modifiers, but not with weapon range. Increases to area of effect do not scale illusion travel distance or the distance interval of waves. Waves gradually gain area of effect while the illusion is moving, affecting all waves' area. Releasing the final wave also increases the area further.[8] The exact scaling is unknown.

Interactions

  • Ailments: Deals 150% more Damage while Channelling if Illusion has finished moving and Hits from Final wave deal 75% of Damage per stage do not scale the damage of ailments.[9]
  • Unarmed: Charged Dash cannot be used while unarmed.
  • Dual wielding: While dual wielding, each pulse will alternate the hand used. The final wave uses a random hand and does not care about the last hand used.
  • Proxies: When used by an entity other than the player, such as through The SaviourThe Saviour
