Abilities 

	1 25	Rip Line Valkyr hurls forth a hook. If it hits an enemy, she pulls them to her. If it hits terrain, she pulls herself to the hook's location. Introduced in Update 11.0 (2013-11-20)	Strength:30
			Duration:1 s (combo window)
			Range:26 m

• Info
• Augment

Info

• Valkyr fires a grappling hook that covers a range of 26 meters. If the hook hits terrain or an ally, Valkyr will be pulled towards the hook's location. If an enemy is hooked, they will be knocked down and will be dealt 30  Slash damage.
  • Pull strength is affected by the distance Rip Line is cast, as well as the verticality of the angle.
    • The more vertical the pull of Rip Line is, the stronger it will be, making it far more effective at vertical traversal than horizontal traversal.
  • Rip Line can pull Valkyr across chasms and long gaps; however, Valkyr is not pulled the full distance to the hook's location.
• If Rip Line is successfully cast within a window of 1 second after the previous cast, its damage will be multiplied by 20%, and its energy cost will be reduced by 50%. Any successful cast thereafter will multiply Rip Line's damage by 40% and reduce its energy cost by 75%.
  • The duration of the combo window and the respective damage multiplier for the next successful cast are displayed underneath the HUD's targeting reticle.
  • If no casts are performed within the combo window, the damage and energy cost will reset.
• Rip Line is a one-handed ability when cast onto terrain and can be used while performing various maneuvers and actions without interruption. When used upon allies, both Valkyr and the ally will also treat this action as a one-handed ability. However, casting on enemies will cause interruption.
• Rip Line has a slight delay between activation and pulling either an enemy or Valkyr, as the grappling hook has a minute travel time.
• Has a cast delay of about ~0.9 seconds between uses.

A "thrust attack" is a melee strike that intends to hit an enemy with the tip of the blade (the rounded edge of obround melee hitbox). A "360/spin attack" is a sliding sweep attack that hits targets around the player (not always in a 360° arc, but is usually above 180°). A "direct slam attack" is a melee strike that hits a single target at the epicenter of a slam attack. A "radial slam attack" is the area-of-effect component of the melee slam attack. Affected by the Seismic Wave mod. A "ranged attack" is any melee attack that launches a ranged projectile or can hit targets beyond melee range. View Full Legend Average Damage Multiplier per second only applies to single-target DPS calculations. Note that hits marked as "Radial Slam Attack" will not apply at the epicenter of a single target hit so these will not be accounted for in Avg Dmg Multi/s calculations. Combo animation lengths are approximate and are only accurate within a few tenths of a second. Each tile marking in stance preview gifs are 2m apart. Combos labeled with an asterisk (*) are shared between weapons within the same weapon type.
