This synergizes well with builds centered around BloodВ Rush, WeepingВ Wounds, and Gladiator Mods.Blade Storm can be used to start long melee combo chains to gain additional bonus melee damage.Since you return to your starting point you will return to your 'safe spot' but will have picked up health orbs, energy orbs, resources, and even mods.

BladeВ Storm can be used to pick up items that are very far away or in dangerous situations (an item surrounded by 5 enemies for example).This can be used to give time to regenerate your shields.

Blade Storm can be activated while zooming in with a ranged weapon.Ash can regenerate his shields during the animation.He consumes marks, and effectively accelerates the assault. Strikes by Ash deal the same damage as his clones, but will attack enemies not targeted his clones.While joining Blade Storm costs no energy, Ash must have enough energy to cast Teleport to join.Ash becomes invulnerable for the duration as he teleports and strikes all remaining marked enemies in a cinematic sequence. While Blade Storm is attacking, Teleport can be cast on a marked enemy at no energy cost to include Ash in the assault.Invisibility by means of SmokeВ Screen or other allied abilities will half the energy cost of Blade Storm from 12 to 6 per mark.Ash cannot re-enter targeting mode while his Shadow Clones are attacking marked enemies.Blade Storm has no casting animations, so Ash can still perform all other functions normally such as maneuvering, casting other abilities, and firing or reloading weapons.While in targeting mode, Ash emits black smoke and his vision darkens.Reactivating Blade Storm with no marks will toggle off targeting mode instead.Enemies that die to Direct Hits (not Slash's Bleed's DoT) will activate ArcaneВ Trickery, ArcaneВ Ultimatum, and ExodiaВ Might.The combo counter will reset when equipped with Xoris or similar melee weapons that feature infinite duration combo counter.
