Showing me the abilities that do things with shadow clones, but never explaining what it is, how you get it, what it does, or how it scales makes all the information shown about those abilities completely useless.
Shadows are basically just ethereal ghosts that execute certain skills immediately/after a predefined period/when you initiate a skill that procs them… These might directly do damage to mobs, boost your next damage depending on the number of shadows you have or heal you / gain mana by consuming shadows.
For example, you can create shadows using the Shift skill and then use Shadow Cascade to do a circular melee attack that is also used by your shadows causing more damage etc… There are lots of interactions between creating shadows and using shadows to do more damage or proc other effects…
And some Rogue builds can be seriously OP purely because of the use of Shadows…
Ah, thanks for the clarification. It would’ve made choosing a class much easier at the start to have the info in game when looking at Rogue, heh. I was going to choose Rogue, but saw I wasn’t sure what some of the moves actually did, and that Rogue has 1 fewer skills shown for their ascended classes than everyone else, so I picked Sentinel.
It’s fun! Shield Rush is a blast 
Sentinel is probably the safest class to use for a first time player… Easiest, imho, to learn the game and forgiving in terms of defences…
