Class: Rogue/Falconer
Skill: Smoke Bomb skill
Node: Smoke Blades Node
Issue: Smoke Blades Node
According to the skill description:
You and allies are granted Smoke Blades each second for 4 seconds while inside the smoke cloud, granting you additional melee and throwing damage. This effect can stack.
As I understand it:
1.) 1 Smoke Blade buff will be given every 1 second, which has a duration of 4 seconds. An icon is shown as buff.
2.) Smoke Blades are stackable as long as the character is inside the Smoke Bomb.
3.) Each Smoke Blade will provide +20 melee & throwing damage (at Lv5).
Item 1 is correct AND wrong. Looking at the icon alone, the duration is indeed 4 seconds. However, the effect (item #3) gets removed once the character goes outside the Smoke Bomb.
Item 2 is correct, showing the correct number of stacks while inside the Smoke Bomb.
Item 3 is wrong. It only provides the effect of 1 Smoke Blade. If it is intentional, then what is the purpose of having a stackable Smoke Blade if the effect (+20 to melee & throwing dmg) and duration (4sec) do not work? Can’t it just have the effect similar to Haste where it refreshes (certain skill I can’t remember) instead of stacking?
