Usage Strategies

• Player must execute the combat art while running in order to cover the full distance.

• Note that, like all CA's in the Death Warrior aspect, casting speed is determined by weapon speed, and can be boosted by weapon lore skills and +% attack speed. Likewise, the casting speed will be penalized by wielding a weapon with too high a level.
