Most effective against flesh. Slash status ignores the target's armor and causes them to bleed for extra damage over a short duration.

—In-game Description

 Slash Damage is one of the three physical damage types. It is effective against all forms of flesh, but it is less effective against  Grineer Ferrite Armor and  Corpus Robotics.

However, while slash damage suffers a reduction to armor, the damage from its corresponding status effect, Bleed, does not on account of it dealing  True damage rather than Slash.

Status Effects

General

The status effect of  Slash damage is Bleed. It applies a DoT effect after a 1 second delay, dealing a tick of damage each second for 6 seconds. Each tick deals  True damage equal to:

${\begin{aligned}{\text{Modded Base Damage}}&={\text{Base Damage}}\times (1+{\text{Base Damage Bonuses}})\times (1+{\text{Faction Damage Bonuses}})\end{aligned}}$

Notice that modded base damage calculation used for DoT is not the same as normal damage calculations, ignoring physical and elemental damage bonuses.

${\begin{aligned}{\text{Slash Proc Damage per Tick}}&=0.35\times {\text{Modded Base Damage}}\times (1+{\text{Faction Damage Bonuses}})\times {\text{Additional Multipliers}}\end{aligned}}$

Additional Multipliers include modded critical multiplier on Critical Hit and multipliers on Enemy Body Parts; these stack multiplicatively with each other.

Multiple instances of the effect can stack on the same target, with each instance having its own timer, but only up to 10 tick numbers are actually shown, the rest are hidden to save performance.

While bleeding, the target will have small bursts of blood come out every fraction of a second where they were hit to trigger this proc. Machinery and Robotic enemies will instead bleed oil.

Because the damage from this status effect is  True damage, it can bypass Ferrite Armor and Alloy Armor, which can help compensate for  Slash damage's penalty against armor.

Increasing Slash Proc Damage

Because Bleed scales off of the base damage of the weapon, the amount of damage dealt is not affected by elemental mods nor physical-type mods like  Contagious Spread and  Buzz Kill, but is affected by Faction Damage Mods and Base Damage mods like  Pressure Point.

 Slash procs scale with damage multipliers such as Headshots and Critical Hits, which greatly increases the damage dealt. However weakspots generated by  Sonar or  Detect Vulnerability only increase the initial hit, not the DoT.

For example, tick damage for a weapon with an innate 100 damage,  Serration, and  Bane of Grineer will be:

Modded Damage = 100 × (1 + 1.65) × (1 + 0.3) = 344.5

Tick damage = 0.35 × 344.5 × (1 + 0.3) = 156.7475

As can be seen in the above calculations for tick damage, Faction Damage is applied twice, making their effective bonus = (1+Faction Bonus)^2. Which is +69% for the 30% Faction Damage mods and +140.25% for the 55% Primed Faction Damage mods.

Mods that affect Finisher melee attacks (e.g.  Finishing Touch and  Savage Silence) have no effect on  True damage, and as such do not interact with  Slash procs in any special way.

Unlike other DoT effects, enemy armor will have no effect on slash proc damage despite decreasing the initial damage. In other words, slash procs will deal the same damage per tick against the same target at differing levels. Thus, buffs/debuffs that increase/decrease enemy armor will also have no effect on slash proc damage.

Melee weapon types that force proc Bleeds on Heavy Attacks

Claws, Dual Daggers, Nikanas, 2H Nikanas, Rapiers, Scythes, Tonfas, Warfans and Whips have guaranteed Bleed procs on their entire heavy attacks, regardless of stance used, while Daggers and Machetes only on parts of their heavy attacks.

Railjack

The status effect of  Slash damage against Railjack space enemies is Tear, increasing the damage the target ship takes by 7.5% for 20 seconds, with subsequent procs stacking multiplicatively with itself.

Dismemberment

Enemies killed by  Slash damage to the torso can result in their corpse being bisected, which is considerably valuable for a  Nekros using  Desecrate, as each part of the body can spawn a Health Orb and some loot (note that individual limbs that have been removed from a corpse cannot be Desecrated, only large parts of the body). Corpses can also be quickly meleed to dismember them; however, an enemy's corpse can only ever be mutilated twice—if melee spam ended up lopping two limbs from a corpse, it will not be possible to then attempt to bisect it to get two desecrate rolls. Note that this characteristic may be disabled due to gore settings or regional locks: the Japanese version of WARFRAME, for example, does not allow for much corpse dismemberment.

Bleed damage does not dismember a body if it is the cause of death, only direct  Slash damage from weapons. Consequently,  Hunter Munitions cannot be used on its own to cause dismemberment. Weapons must have over 50% of their physical (IPS) damage as  Slash damage to dismember. Weapons with exactly 50%, such as the  Soma, do not initially dismember, but for example can be modded with  Sawtooth Clip to bump slash damage above 50%, and thus enable dismemberment. Elemental mods have no effect on this ratio and can therefore be included and still cause dismemberment. As an alternative, the "gore" attribute from  Amalgam Ripkas True Steel mod also applies itself to the rest of the player's equipped weapons, companions, and Warframe abilities, and they will function identically to the dismemberment mechanic, whilst ignoring the weapon's IPS disposition.

Type Effectiveness

Grineer Health	Slash Modifier	Corpus Health	Slash Modifier	Infested Health	Slash Modifier
Cloned Flesh	+25%	Flesh	+25%	Infested	+25%
Ferrite Armor	-15%	Shield		Infested Flesh	+50%
Alloy Armor	-50%	Proto Shield		Fossilized	+15%
Machinery		Robotic	-25%	Infested Sinew

As with all damage types ineffective against armor,  Slash damage's type modifier works in two ways: it decreases the damage dealt in the same way as a type modifier against hitpoints and increases the armor's value by a percentage of the target's armor for the damage calculation. Practically speaking, this means that  Slash damage is reduced by -50% and damage is further reduced by 150% of a target's whole Alloy Armor. Similarly,  Slash damage is reduced by 115% of a target's whole Ferrite Armor and the base damage is reduced by -15%.

Slash Sources

Main article: Category:Slash Damage

Weapons

These weapons deal the majority of their physical damage as  Slash. The damage ratio is important for physical damage status effects, as the game weights the likelihood of which proc occurs according to physical damage ratio. Hence, these weapons proc Bleed more than  Impact's Knockback or  Puncture's Weakened.

	ENERGY: 25 KEY 1	Shuriken Launches a spinning blade of pain, dealing high damage and impaling enemies to walls.	Strength:100 / 250 / 350 / 500 ( Slash damage on hit)
			Duration:N/A
			Range:N/A

• Info
• Augment
• Tips & Tricks

Info

• Ash throws 1 / 1 / 2 / 2 shuriken to strike enemies standing within a 6 meter radius around him, or home in on enemies within 60 meters and a 90° angle of the aiming reticle. Each Shuriken inflicts 100 / 250 / 350 / 500  Slash damage with a 100% status chance on hit.
  • Damage is affected by Ability Strength and  Theorem Demulcent.
  • The Bleed DoT inflicts 43.75% of the initial damage per tick for a total of 9 ticks over 9 seconds, due to Ash's passive. The Bleed damage bypasses armor.
    • Should Shuriken hit an enemy's head, the Bleed DoT will inflict 87.5% of the initial damage per tick for the same duration.
  • Number of shurikens, auto-target radius, targeting range, homing angle, and status chance are not affected by mods.
  • Shurikens do not require direct line of sight to home in on enemies.
  • Shurikens can bypass obstacles in the environment to strike targets behind walls and objects.
  • Shurikens will travel toward the aiming reticle on a slight angle if no enemies were standing close to Ash or within the targeting range and homing angle. Enemies will still receive damage and proc if hit by these Shurikens.
• Shuriken will not disrupt Shade's cloak.
• Shuriken is a one-handed action. As such, it can be used while performing various maneuvers and actions without interruption.
• Delay of about 0.5 seconds between uses.
• Subsuming Ash to the Helminth will offer Shuriken and its augments to be used by other Warframes.

Augment

Main article: Seeking Shuriken

Seeking Shuriken is an  Ash Warframe Augment Mod that allows  Shuriken to temporarily reduce the armor of their targets.

Rank	Armor Reduction	Duration	Cost
0	35%	2s	6
1	45%	4s	7
2	55%	6s	8
3	70%	8s	9

Tips & Tricks

• Can be cast in rapid succession and since  Slash procs ignore armor and can be stacked, this can bypass the high scaled armor of Grineer units.
• Shuriken can be used to seek out nearby hidden enemies due to its homing feature.
  • However, Shuriken will often try to seek enemies that you've run past, making it miss both the enemy you ran past and the target you were trying to hit.
• Using the  Seeking Shuriken augment, Ash can strip armor of any enemy entirely with only 143% Ability Strength. It works great on bosses, especially in Sorties when they are high level.

	ENERGY: 0 KEY 4	Blade Storm Project fierce shadow clones of Ash upon groups of distant enemies. Join the fray using Teleport. Energy per Mark: 12 Energy per Mark (while invisible): 6	Strength:750 / 1000 / 1500 / 2000 ( True damage)
			Duration:N/A
			Range:50 m
			Misc:3 (number of hits per mark) 2 (number of Shadow Clones)

• Info
• Augment
• Tips & Tricks
• Bugs

Info

• Ash toggles a state of intense focus as he searches for targets to assassinate. During targeting mode, enemies within 50 meters from Ash that are seen near the aiming reticle become highlighted and tagged with a death mark above their head.
  • Marking enemies drains 12 energy each, or 6 energy while Ash is invisible (e.g. using  Smoke Screen).
    • Energy cost per mark is affected by Ability Efficiency.
  • Target acquisition range is affected by Ability Range.
    • Leaving this range while targeting will unmark enemies and refund the energy.
• When 1 or more enemies are marked, reactivating the ability will create 2 Shadow Clones that teleport to each marked enemy, striking them with 3 Finisher attacks that inflict 750 / 1000 / 1500 / 2000  True damage per hit with a 100%  Slash Bleed chance.
  • Damage is affected by Ability Strength,  Steel Charge,  Savage Silence,  Radiant Finish,  Arcane Fury,  Arcane Blade Charger, Combo Counter multipliers, and  Viral status.
    • Blade Storm gains 25% additional damage for each combo multiplier, up to a 3.75x damage multiplier at 12x combo, or 4.0x with  Venka Prime equipped at 13x combo.
    • Melee mods do not increase damage, including  Finishing Touch and  Covert Lethality.
    • Melee mods that affect the combo counter and attack speed will benefit blade storm.
      • Weapons that modify the combo meter also apply, including the bonus initial combo count passives for  Furax Wraith (20),  Synoid Heliocor (20),  Fragor Prime (30), and  Venka Prime's increased combo cap.
      • Animation speed is affected by attack speed mods (e.g.  Fury) up to the Finisher cap of +50%.
        • Buffs such as  Speed,  Warcry and  Arcane Strike will only buff Ash's Animation speed when he joins blade storm via  Teleport, and not the clone's.
        • Animation speed is not affected by the base weapon's attack speed,  Berserker Fury, or casting speed mods (e.g.,  Natural Talent).
    •  Arcane Arachne does not increase damage.
  • The Bleed's DoT inflicts 43.75% of the initial damage per tick for a total of 9 ticks over 9 seconds. The Bleed damage bypasses armor.
    • Direct hit damage therefore accounts for only 20% of Blade Storm's total damage.
  • Total Direct hit Damage (not  Slash's Bleed's DoT) is further multiplied by  Excalibur's  Radiant Finish and  Banshee's  Savage Silence. (eg. with 100% strength: 2,000 × (1 +  300%) = 8,000)
  • Strikes from Ash and his clones add to the melee combo counter.
    • Strikes from the Shadow Clones add 1 hit per enemy (4 with  Rising Storm)
    • Combo gain is affected by combo gain  mods and  arcanes, but not  Relentless Combination.
  • The combo counter will reset when equipped with  Xoris or similar melee weapons that feature infinite duration combo counter.
  • Enemies that die to Direct Hits (not  Slash's Bleed's DoT) will activate  Arcane Trickery,  Arcane Ultimatum, and  Exodia Might.
• Reactivating Blade Storm with no marks will toggle off targeting mode instead.
  • While in targeting mode, Ash emits black smoke and his vision darkens.
  • 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.
  • Ash cannot re-enter targeting mode while his Shadow Clones are attacking marked enemies.
• Ability Synergy:
  • Invisibility by means of  Smoke Screen or other allied abilities will half the energy cost of Blade Storm from 12 to 6 per mark.
  • While Blade Storm is attacking,  Teleport can be cast on a marked enemy at no energy cost to include Ash in the assault. Ash becomes invulnerable for the duration as he teleports and strikes all remaining marked enemies in a cinematic sequence.
    • While joining Blade Storm costs no energy, Ash must have enough energy to cast Teleport to join.
    • Strikes by Ash deal the same damage as his clones, but will attack enemies not targeted his clones. He consumes marks, and effectively accelerates the assault.
    • Ash can regenerate his shields during the animation.

Augment

Main article: Rising Storm

Rising Storm is an  Ash Warframe Augment Mod that allows the clones generated by  Blade Storm to contribute additional hits to the Melee Combo Counter, as well as increases the duration the Melee Combo Counter lasts.

Rank	Bonus Hits per Attack	Bonus Combo Duration	Cost
0	1	10s	6
1	2	10s	7
2	3	10s	8
3	4	10s	9

Tips & Tricks

• Blade Storm can be activated while zooming in with a ranged weapon. This can be used to more precisely pick targets. 
• You are invincible while using  Blade Storm. This can be used to give time to regenerate your shields.
•  Blade 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 generally requires a sentinel's  Vacuum skill for maximum effectiveness. Simply target an enemy near something you want to pick up and activate the ability. 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.
• Blade Storm can be used to start long melee combo chains to gain additional bonus melee damage.
  • This synergizes well with builds centered around  Blood Rush,  Weeping Wounds, and Gladiator Mods.
• Blade Storm can be empowered by performing melee combo chains before casting, as the ability's damage benefits greatly from the bonus melee damage multiplier.
• Since Blade Storm deals  True damage, the ability is well suited to dealing with Conculysts and Battalysts.
• Ash's second ability,  Smoke Screen, synergizes well with this ability, reducing both the energy cost per mark and Ash's vulnerability when marking enemies.
  • Similarly,  Arcane Trickery also synergizes well, since it can be triggered by Blade Storm and reduces the cost per mark.
• Blade Storm allows Ash to easily trigger  Arcane Ultimatum, giving him a boost in survivability.
• Blade Storm finishers also trigger  Exodia Might with Zaws, allowing substantial health regeneration without the use of  Life Strike.
• Considering Blade Storm has a 100% chance to proc Bleed, dealing 43.75% of the base damage 10 times in 9 seconds, the ability actually does 2,000 + ((2,000×0.4375)×10) = 10,750 damage in 9 seconds, making it one of the most powerful abilities in the game if modded and used accordingly.
• If used during sliding, Blade Storm seems to use a shorter version of finishing animations, which reduces total animation time.
• Blade Storm benefits greatly from the effects of  Body Count,  Drifting Contact, and  Gladiator Rush. Instead of having a 3 second delay before the combo counter disappears, the delay will be 3+12+10+6 = 31 seconds.
  • Using the  Rising Storm augment will further increase the delay.
• Since Ash only spawns 2 Shadow Clones, it's highly suggested to equip attack speed mods as the time needed for the Shadow Clones' animations can make gameplay sluggish, especially if a large amount of enemies are marked.
• Joining Blade Storm has multiple benefits for Ash:
  • Becoming invulnerable allows Ash to ignore status effects, such as  Toxin, and regenerate his shields.
  • The rate in which attacks are dealt is increased as there will be 3 attackers instead of 2.
  • The amount of hits added to the combo counter from the ability will be higher than if Ash were to not join.
• Using Teleport on an unmarked enemy while Ash's Shadow Clones are attacking marked ones will result in the unmarked enemy being marked without consuming any energy. Ash will then join Blade Storm until all marks are expended.
  • Enemies attacked by Blade Storm this way are only attacked once.

Bugs

On certain unspecific occasions Ash will become invulnerable after using Blade Storm. It should also be noted that Blade Storm can cause lag commonly.

Very rarely, after using Blade Storm, Ash will float and become invincible. He is unable to jump or fall down, use melee weapons (or primaries/secondaries in some cases), or use Blade Storm again. Pressing E will teleport to a random enemy and perform a purely aesthetic Blade Storm attack which does no damage. This appears to occur when Blade Storm's initial target is killed before Blade Storm begins.

• On some occasions (most likely related to latency), Ash will remain vulnerable whilst being unable to exit this bugged state without getting killed (as in, actually dying and using a revive charge, as revived by a teammate will not end this glitch).
• This may occur when the initial target for Blade Storm is killed (by another player/procs) during the teleporting animation, causing Ash to teleport to his casting location, and initiate this bug.
• To deactivate the bug, Ash can prompt a "falling out of level" event by power wall climbing to the sky if there is a wall in the map that allows him to. This will respawn Ash to a random location on the ground and deactivate the bug.

Very Rarely, when Ash finishes using Blade Storm he will appear at the location where he used it with 0 Health, unable to move, unable to use weapons, and unable to be damaged by enemies. Any on screen prompts that occur, such as Defense and Interception wave prompts, will not be presented to Ash in this state. Ash cannot be revived as he isn't considered down despite the fact that he has 0 health. The only way to fix this bug is to wait for the mission to end or leave the mission.

If wielding a melee weapon when cast, Blade Storm will occasionally perform Finisher attacks on enemies. This does not occur if the player is hosting.

Occasionally, Ash will fall out of the map after using Blade Storm, where he will either teleport back to the original casting position or die.

If Blade Storm is cast and Ash's holograms seek out a  Mind Controlled target, they will attack the target indefinitely until either the Mind Controlled target dies or its duration expires.

Attempting to use Blade Storm against another player when fighting in the Dojo will cause Ash to become invincible and hover in the air. In this state, Ash can only move and use firearms.

When Ash has no melee weapon equipped, it is possible in some cases for Ash to attain an unmodded Skana after using Bladestorm. This Skana is not listed in the end of mission screen, nor in the in-game gear list, and is lost upon dying or completion of the mission.

Info

• Excalibur dashes between enemies within a cone 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 meters long and cuts them down with his Exalted Blade. Each strike inflicts 100 / 125 / 200 / 250 base damage.
  • Base damage is 15%  Impact, 15%  Puncture, and 70%  Slash.
  • Cone length and dash velocity are affected by Ability Range.
  • Slash Dash is affected by Aim Glide
  • Slash Dash is affected by momentum, but will not change momentum outside of its animation. Thus, whichever way you were going before you cast Slash Dash you will continue to go unless stopped, by other means, at same speed. This will affect how far your Slash Dash will go when not targeted.
  • As Slash Dash's base Critical Chance and Status Chance are 0%, Slash Dash can not deal critical hits or status effects without flat bonuses to either metric.
• Damage is affected by Ability Strength, the Melee Combo Counter and some mods.
  • If the player has a longsword, dual sword, rapier, or nikana equipped, Slash Dash receives a 10% bonus to its base damage from Excalibur's Swordsmanship passive.
  • With a maxed  Pressure Point,  Shocking Touch and  Intensify, a rank-3 Slash Dash will deal
    Base Damage × (1 + Damage Mods) × (1 + Elemental Mod) × (1 + Strength Mods) =
    250 × (1 + 1.2) × (1 + 0.9) × (1 + 0.3) = 1,358.5 damage.
  • The mod stats that affect Slash Dash include:
    • damage (e.g.,  Steel Charge)
    • physical (e.g.,  Jagged Edge)
    • elemental (e.g.,  Molten Impact)
    • weapon augments (e.g.,  Justice Blades)
  • The Scindo Manticore Skin's damage bonus applies to the ability.
  • Slash Dash is not affected by the equipped melee weapon's stats and innate effects, class-specific mods,
