Notes[]

  • Shadow Flare works similar to Mark of Flame, in that both have a weaker first attack, followed by a destructive second attack.
  • More than one knife can hit a target. If the player gets close enough to a single large foe, incredible amounts of damage can be dealt.
  • The Shadow Flare is a useful mana saver technique; it bleeds and pierces the enemy at a low cost of mana, useful when you're running low on it.
