Stats

Rank	Initial Combo	Finisher Damage	Cost

1	+8	50%	11
2	+12	75%	12
3	+16	+100%	13

Notes

• Stacks with  Finishing Touch for +160% bonus finisher damage.
• The "Initial Combo" bonus provided by this mod adds a flat number to the combo counter. When the combo counter is reset, either by using a heavy attack or through combo counter decay, it will reset to a minimum of this number.
• Aside from Stealth attacks, the following Warframe abilities can also leave enemies vulnerable to melee finishers, regardless if the finisher is performed in front or behind the enemy;
  •  Ash's  Teleport. (Even better when used with the  Fatal Teleport augment.)
  •  Banshee's  Savage Silence augment.
    • Savage Silence is required to make  Silence open enemies to finishers, as the standard stun performed by the ability does not do so.
  •  Baruuk's  Lull
  •  Equinox' Rest.
    • As any damage affected targets receive will make them fall to the ground, try to avoid attacking them if you plan to make use of Covert Lethality.
  •  Excalibur's  Radial Blind (power only, the slide attack Radial Blind from  Exalted Blade does not open enemies to finishers).
  •  Gara's passive Glint may blind enemies when she is in bright light.
  •  Inaros'  Desiccation.
    • Do note that enemies are only open to melee finishers if they are facing Inaros when Desiccation is cast.
  •  Ivara's Sleep Arrow.
  •  Mirage's  Prism.
  •  Valkyr's  Paralysis.
    • It is not advised to equip the  Prolonged Paralysis augment, as it instead leaves enemies vulnerable to ground finishers.
  •  Wukong's  Cloud Walker.

Trivia

• Prior to Update 26.0, the mod possessed a unique mechanic called Lethal Damage, which refers to the ability to instantly kill an enemy upon performing a finisher attack regardless of their level or defenses.
