• Serrated Stones — Bleeding you inflict has increased duration. Deal increased damage to bleeding foes.

Notes

Bugs:

• Shield Smash randomly doesn't deal the damage part to the target, while the bleeding always works. It seems to hit more often if you pause between the first and second chain attack.
• This skill is affected by buffs that increase movement speed such as  Superspeed.

• Despite the skill description, this skill is actually a 300 range dash attack that will prevent other actions such as dodging until the animation is complete.
