Vaal Reave is a vaal melee attack that deals damage in a small area all round the user, increasing the area of effect each time you hit an enemy.

Skill Functions and Interactions

The maximum number of stacks that can be applied by Vaal Reave is 8, for a total of 240% more radius which ends up at about 41 units. This is in contrast to Reave which can only apply up to 4 stacks, but is capable of maintaining any number of stacks. Area of effect spreads out in a 135 degree arc.
