Finisher attacks are special melee attacks that have a custom animation and deal a very high amount of damage. For the available types of finishers see below.
While in Stealth, the weapon's level will affect finisher's damage. See #Stealth Attack.
All weapon types have individual finisher animations. Heavier weapons tend to perform this action slower than lighter weapons.
Players performing finishers are invulnerable for the duration of the animation.
Additionally, Finisher attack damage is dependent on the type of melee weapon used and can be increased by Finishing Touch as well as several Ability Augments (e.g. Excalibur's Radiant Finish).
(Primed) Fury, Gladiator Vice, Quickening, Arcane Strike and the weapon type influence the animation speed of the finisher. This caps at a 33% faster animation with +50% attack speed. Berserker and the weapon's base attack speed do not affect animation speed.
Damage multipliers from finishers factor total weapon damage, equipped mods (including critical chance and critical multiplier mods) will also affect a finisher's final damage.
Execute knocked-down enemies. This attack is performed upon moving close to a downed opponent, aiming your crosshair at the target and pressing the melee attack button. This will not work on most bosses. This attack often will initiate even when not looking down at an enemy, but when contacting an enemy who has been knocked down.
Ground Finishers do not inflict True Damage, but rather retain their damage spread as normal. As a result, they are not considered Finisher attacks for some in-game challenges such as Nightwave daily challenges.
Ground Finishers deal a multiple of the weapon's damage. Different weapon types gain different damage multipliers: [Expand]
Approach unalerted enemy from behind + Interact button
A stealth attack prompt on an unalerted Butcher
A Prisma Skana's stealth attack
Bosses can indeed be stealth attacked.
As long as an enemy is unaware of the Tenno presence, a stealth attack may be executed on them. To perform a stealth attack, the player must approach an enemy from behind and activate the stealth attack prompt.
Often called "Stealth Finisher" to differentiate from normal attacks with the stealth damage bonus.
Stealth Damage Bonus = 1 + 0.2 × Weapon Rank
Stealth Attacks have their damage fully converted to True Damage.
Through certain abilities and attacks even alerted enemies can be made vulnerable to finisher attacks. Without a prompt the player can perform a finisher on the enemy, if close enough.
Enemies in this stunned, vulnerable state also take increased damage through the stealth damage bonus.
However they do not grant the affinity bonus of normal stealth kills, if they were alerted beforehand.
If they were unalerted when being affected by these effects, they will stay that way for the duration of the stun or blind even when attacked.
Damage conversion to True Damage applies just as for Stealth Finishers.
Even if the enemy remains in a stunned or blinded state, a finisher can only be executed once per enemy until they are made vulnerable again.
Inaros's Desiccation can attack the enemy multiple times during the duration.
Stealth Finisher on Nox can also be multiple times.
While most melee weapons by themselves cannot open enemies to finishers, all single dagger weapons can after performing a heavy attack.
Rear finishers use the same animations as Stealth finishers, but when performed from the front a different animation will be used.
The Finisher damage calculation formula is the same as Stealth Finisher.
Some weapons have different damage multipliers for their Front-Finishers compared their Back-Finishers, with back finishers using weapon multipliers from the Stealth Attack section above. Multipliers for Front Finishers are as follows: [Expand]
Ash performs a somersault as he teleports to a target within 20 / 45 / 45 / 60 meters on his aiming reticle. If the target is an enemy, it is staggered and opened to a melee finisher attack.
If the enemy cannot be attacked with a melee finisher (either due to positioning or the enemy type), it will be susceptible to Stealth Damage Multipliers from melee attacks for the duration of the stagger.
As with Smoke Screen, coming into physical contact with the enemy while attacking will temporarily remove the damage bonus.
Can be cast for free on a marked enemy target during Blade Storm's Shadow Clones assault phase. Ash will teleport to the targeted enemy and strike it and all remaining marked enemies in a cinematic cutscene sequence.
When an unmarked enemy is targeted instead, Ash will attack it once before striking all remaining marked enemies.
Requires direct line of sight to a small part of the target to cast.
Can be used while in mid-air.
Note that using Teleport on enemies will alert them to your presence, preventing you from receiving the Stealth Kill affinity bonus.
Wardens additionally lose the massive stealth attack bonus they receive from normal stealth attacks.
Fatal Teleport is a Warframe Augment Mod for Ash that causes Teleport to immediately perform a melee finisher upon teleporting to the target, with an additional damage multiplier. Additionally, if the finisher kills its target, 50% of Teleport's energy cost is refunded.
Lull A calming wave slows enemies until they fall into a slumber. Enemies woken by damage will be confused and disoriented. Short-term amnesia means all waking enemies forget anything that happened before the lull.
Baruuk casts a calming wave over an area of 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 meters that lingers for 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 seconds. Enemies in sight or aware of Baruuk's presence that enter the area will gradually slow and then fall asleep for 10 / 13 / 18 / 20 seconds. Sleeping enemies awaken early when damaged, suffering disorientation for a brief moment, along with amnesia causing their alertness level to reset.
Endless Lullaby is a Warframe Augment Mod for Baruuk's Lull that causes finishers to re-trigger Lull for some, or all, of it's remaining duration. This mod also passively increases Lull's duration.
Cast range and targeted area radius are affected by Ability Range.
Night form
Affected enemies are forced to sleep. They automatically wake up when the duration expires or their health reaches 80% / 70% / 60% / 50% of their current values.
Visually tethered to the ground by energy threads;
Ragdolled in a sleeping posture when dealt damage;
Cannot recover from stagger, knockdown, and ragdoll effects until they wake.
Enemies retain their current alertness state on cast (i.e., unaware enemies put to sleep will remain unaware for this duration, while alerted enemies will remain alert). Enemies under the effects of Rest will always be susceptible to melee finishers and stealth damage multipliers; however, affected enemies that were previously alerted will not grant Stealth Kill Affinity Bonuses.
Energy threads will visually strike enemies in the targeted area to indicate affected targets.
Day form
Affected enemies are enraged. They receive 20% / 30% / 40% / 50% increased damage from all sources, and 5% / 10% / 15% / 20% movement speed and attack speed bonuses.
Damage vulnerability and enemy speed bonus are affected by Ability Strength.
The damage vulnerability adds multiplicatively to the original damage the affected enemy would receive (e.g., with a maxed Intensify, an enemy that would receive 250 damage will be dealt 250 × (1 + 0.5 × 1.3) = 412.5 damage under the effects of a rank-3 Rage).
Casting Rage while Provoke is active will increase the percentage of damage vulnerability.
Enraged enemies visually emit a ribbon of energy and energy particles.
Energy threads will visually emit from Day Equinox to strike enemies in the targeted area.
Rest and Rage's sleep and enrage effects can overlap on targets already affected by either version of the ability.
Recasting on the same target will not refresh Rest or Rage effects; however, unaffected enemies can be acquired within the targeted area.
Calm & Frenzy is a Warframe Augment Mod for Equinox that aids her in spreading the effects of Rest & Rage. Enemies slain while affected by Rest & Rage spreads it to others within close proximity, for the remaining duration.
Rest can be used for crowd control by using it on a large group of enemies, doing this will let you use stealth attacks on them while they are affected.
Rage can be used make Maim more effective by having the aura of Slash damage do more and acquire more charge for a more powerful release.
It is possible to activate stealth kill affinity bonuses on enemies using low-damage automatic weapons (ex. Grakata) by casting Rest on an unaware enemy. Affected enemies can then be shot repeatedly and then killed without changing their unaware state, allowing for the affinity multiplier to activate.
When combined with awareness of nearby enemies and sufficient duration on the ability, Rest can be paired with Covert Lethality to great effect. Casting the ability on otherwise-hard-to-kill enemies -- single targets, or small-to-medium-sized groups -- opens them up to stealth attacks and finisher moves. The mod itself does guaranteed "Lethal Damage" on a successful finisher animation, which means if you perform the animation, the enemy dies, guaranteed.
Note that this combination is only effective if the targeted enemies are actually vulnerable to stealth finishers. Some enemies, (such as certain infested units or robotic enemies), are either frequently troublesome to target with a finisher move (due to hitbox detection issues) -- such as the Infested Ancients -- or they are completely immune to finisher moves at the time of this writing (U18.1.4), because they do not trigger the finisher prompts.
Except for the enemies immune to stealth finishers listed above, this combination works against all enemies, regardless of their alertness level prior to becoming a target of Rest.
Note that mods which affect melee attack-speed will also affect the speed of Finisher animations, so using attack-speed mods in conjunction with Covert Lethality -- rather than just using damage mods -- is advised. (If your strategy is to consistently kill with stealth finishers, it doesn't really matter how much damage your normal attacks would otherwise do.)
Excalibur summons and raises his Exalted Blade, releasing an intense flash of light that affects enemies within 8 / 12 / 15 / 25 meters and blinds them for 7 / 10 / 12 / 15 seconds.
Blinded enemies are vulnerable to melee finishers and susceptible to stealth damage bonus.
Radial Blind will not affect enemies behind obstacles in the environment unless Excalibur has line of sight, or unless the enemy is aware of Excalibur within a short period of time (e.g., an enemy that spots Excalibur and runs out of view is still susceptible to Radial Blind if the ability is used within a small time frame).
Enemies affected by the ability are stunned for the entire duration.
Bosses are still able to move, attack, or use abilities while affected by the ability.
Bosses will attack the player's last known location and will follow the sound of gunfire.
Successive casts will reduce the duration of the ability's effect on bosses.
Security cameras will deactivate their laser barriers for the duration.
Blinded enemies have smoke diffusing from their eyes or similar body part for the effect's duration.
Can be used while running, attacking, blocking, jumping, sliding, forward flipping, wall running or clinging to a wall.
Radial Blind let's players quickly disable enemies, especially if they are surrounded. This allows players to either escape or to deal with the enemies.
This ability can be used on some bosses to prevent them from using their abilities.
Bugs
If Excalibur managed to use an item (such as a Life Support in Survival) while casting the ability, Radial Blind will be cast twice: First, in a slowed animation and the second as the actual ability. Both animations still counts as a single Radial Blind.
Excalibur Umbra howls, releasing an intense flash of light that affects enemies within 8 / 12 / 15 / 25 meters and stuns them for 7 / 10 / 12 / 15 seconds.
Stunned enemies are vulnerable to melee finishers and susceptible to stealth damage bonus.
Radial Howl will not affect enemies behind obstacles in the environment unless Excalibur Umbra has line of sight, or unless the enemy is aware of Excalibur Umbra within a short period of time (e.g., an enemy that spots Excalibur Umbra and runs out of view is still susceptible to Radial Howl if the ability is used within a small time frame).
Enemies affected by the ability are stunned for the entire duration.
Bosses are still able to move, attack, or use abilities while affected by the ability.
Bosses will attack the player's last known location and will follow the sound of gunfire.
Successive casts will reduce the duration of the ability's effect on bosses.
Sentient fighters and Shadow Stalker will have their resistances removed if they are affected by Radial Howl.
Security cameras will deactivate their laser barriers for the duration.
Affected enemies have smoke diffusing from their eyes or similar body part for the effect's duration.
Can be used while running, attacking, blocking, jumping, sliding, forward flipping, wall running or clinging to a wall.
Radial Howl lets players quickly disable enemies, especially if they are surrounded. This allows players to either escape or to deal with the enemies.
Radial Howl allows the removal of Sentient resistances without having to switch to Operator mode.
Bugs
If Excalibur Umbra managed to use an item (such as a Life Support in Survival) while casting the ability, Radial Howl will be cast twice: First, in a slowed animation and the second as the actual ability. Both animations still counts as a single Radial Howl.
Excalibur draws an ethereal Skana, the Exalted Blade, and wields it as his melee Exalted Weapon. Normal attacks inflict 100 / 125 / 200 / 250 damage within 2 meters.
Aerial attacks and slam attacks inflict 200 / 250 / 400 / 500 damage, and slam attacks inflict an additional 50Impact damage within 5 meters.
Normal, slide, and aerial attacks will emit an energy wave in the direction of aim. Energy waves have the same base damage as the attacks that release them and fly at a constant speed of 15 m/s until they dissipate at a maximum distance of 40 meters.
The energy waves and Exalted Blade itself are considered separate entities and will both deal damage separately.
Energy waves will punch through and hit enemies and terrain regardless of thickness up to their maximum range.
Wave damage falls off with distance.
Wave range, damage fall off, and flight speed are not affected by mods.
Being a Sword, Exalted Blade will always gain the 10% damage and attack speed bonuses of Excalibur's Swordsmanship passive.
As an example, with a maxed Pressure Point, Shocking Touch and Intensify, the normal attacks and corresponding energy waves of a rank-3 Exalted Blade will deal Base Damage × (1 + Swordsmanship Bonus + Damage Mods) × (1 + Elemental Mods) × (1 + Strength Mods) =250 × (1 + 0.3) × (1 + 0.1 + 1.2) × (1 + 0.9) = 1420.25 damage.
The mods that can be equipped on and affect Exalted Blade include:
The combo counter will reset when equipped with Xoris.
Exalted Blade's combo counter decay is affected by Power Spike.
Radial damage from slam attacks diminishes with distance, does not have a critical chance, is not affected by the Melee Combo Counter, and will cause enemies within range to suffer a knockdown.
Ground finishers inflict 400% of the total modified damage from normal attacks. Prompted Finishers inflict 3200% of the total modified damage from normal attacks as True damage.
Exalted Blade consumes 2.5 energy per second while active and will remain active until Excalibur's energy is depleted, or the ability is deactivated by pressing the ability key again.
Activation energy cost and built-in Radial Blind cost are affected by Ability Efficiency, and the energy drain is affected by Ability Efficiency and Ability Duration.
Exalted Blade is not affected by and can not trigger Exodia Arcanes.
While active, Exalted Blade will use an exclusive stance with its own set of combo attacks.
Slash Dash will receive a +10% bonus to its base damage from Excalibur's Swordsmanship passive and each hit will release an energy wave when Exalted Blade is active.
Exalted Blade is a unique Stance exclusive to Exalted Blade that can only be acquired and used by activating Excalibur's fourth ability, Exalted Blade. This Stance overrides the Stance on any currently equipped melee weapon for as long as Exalted Blade remains active.
Due to Exalted Blade's waves being able to unlimitedly punch through up to its maximum range, Exalted Blade is well suited to taking out hordes of enemies, especially if they are huddled together.
Furthermore, Exalted Blade can be used to deal with enemies while in cover without requiring Punch Through mods.
The innate slide attack blind provides a cheaper alternative to Radial Blind, albeit with greatly reduced duration and range. (Note that the Radial Blind power is cheaper both per meter of range and per second of effect, despite having a higher cost per cast.)
Allows players to blind enemies and quickly deal with them without being delayed by finisher animations.
Combined with Mag's Magnetize, the sword waves can be redirected to hit the enemies inside multiple times until its maximum range can be reached.
Crouching will allow the use of all Exalted Blade attacks while remaining entirely stationary; this can be extremely useful during boss fights, defense missions, survival, etc.
Bugs
Using this ability during an "Unarmed" bug will result in Exalted Blade having the same stats as your Melee Weapon, and sometimes will perform your Melee Weapon's Unsheathed attacks without the Waves.
Energy Leech Eximus does not increase the energy drain of Exalted Blade while active.
If Excalibur enters Bleedout state while Exalted Blade is active, Excalibur will use his melee and sometimes primary weapon rather than his secondary.
Equipping Reflex Guard can make Excalibur sporadically not take damage if Exalted Blade auto-blocks damage.
Passive: Glint
Standing in bright light, Gara has a chance to blind enemies within 12 meters for 10 seconds and expose them to Melee Finisher attacks.
Inaros scatters a wave of cursed sand that staggers all enemies up to 10 / 12 / 13 / 15 meters away in a cone in front of him, dealing 75 / 100 / 125 / 150True damage on hit, then 2 / 4 / 6 / 8True damage per second for 3 / 5 / 6 / 8 seconds; 25% of any damage dealt by the damage-over-time effect is conferred back to Inaros as Health. If enemies are facing toward Inaros as the sand wave strikes, they are also blinded and open to Melee Finisher attack prompts (default X ) for the duration.
The initial damage and damage-over-time are affected by Ability Strength.
Desiccation bypasses obstacles in the environment and does not require line of sight.
Kavats, Kubrows, and MOA companions will also gain the benefit of the life steal. Sentinels will not.
Can be recast while active. Affected enemies that are not blinded can be blinded by another instance of Desiccation.
Cast delay of 0.5 seconds is affected by Natural Talent and Speed Drift. Casting will interrupt movement.
Inaros visually creates a pile of sand on the ground beside him as he throws a handful forward. The sand pile lingers for a few seconds then dissipates.
Dessication provides an easy way for Inaros to deal melee finishers, allowing him to quickly regenerate his health when performed on a crowd.
Against certain types of enemies, namely Infested or MOAs, melee finisher is only triggerable from the back of the enemy. Blind them from the front, then execute the finisher attack from their back.
Misc:3 max cloaking bubbles 4 max ziplines 100 m zipline range 50% health (sleep damage threshold)
Info
Ivara launches one of her variety of specialized arrows that performs a different ability depending on the selected arrow type. Quiver cycles between arrow types upon tapping the ability key (default 1 ), while holding down the key and releasing launches the selected arrow. Up to four different arrow types are unlocked as the ability increases in rank, listed below:
Cloak Arrow anchors onto any surface or entity upon impact, generating an energy bubble that cloaks Ivara and her allies within 2.5 meters of its point of impact for 12 seconds.
Dashwire Arrow anchors onto any terrain surface up to 100 meters away upon impact, forming a zipline from Ivara's feet to its point of impact which can be used to travel to the targeted location.
The path from Ivara's feet to the impact point must be clear to create a zipline. Any obstacles between her feet and the impact point will prevent the zipline from being formed. Ziplines will not form if the line to be created exceeds an angle of 40° from the horizon.
When cast while Ivara is airborne or on a zipline, the new zipline will be created from the impact point to any terrain surface opposite of the arrow's direction of travel.
A maximum of 4 ziplines can be active simultaneously. Firing an additional Dashwire Arrow will replace the oldest active zipline.
If Ivara fires a new Dashwire Arrow while she or an ally occupies the oldest zipline upon reaching the limit, a new zipline will form, and the oldest zipline will remain active until it is no longer occupied.
While Prowl is active, Ivara can sprint and slide across a zipline without breaking out of invisibility.
Unlike typical arrows, Noise Arrow does notalert enemies upon impact. Instead, unalerted enemies will slowly approach the impact point and remain stationary once they arrive.
When more than one instance of Noise Arrow is cast in quick succession, unalerted enemies in range will proceed to investigate the locations by order of arrow impact.
Noise arrow is capable of affecting alerted enemies in endless missions such as Survival. When Ivara is invisible, enemies are alerted, and no allies are in close proximity, Noise arrow can attract enemies to the impact point.
Affects Grineer Sensor Regulator drones; will affect all drones within the effect-radius, even ones which normally remain in one location, causing them to be attracted to the location of the Noise Arrow. They will remain there unless otherwise disturbed by a Tenno's actions, weapons, or abilities.
Drones which have been put to sleep will not immediately react to a Noise Arrow which would otherwise have affected them, based upon range, but upon the expiration of Sleep Arrow's effects, they will move to the location of the Noise Arrow.
Sleep Arrow places enemies within 6 meters of its point of impact into a deep sleep for 10 seconds. Sleeping enemies will wake up when the ability duration expires or if their health falls below 50% of their current values.
Sleeping enemies are open to melee finisher attacks (default E ).
If an enemy is in an unalerted state, Stealth Finishers will be initiated after the enemy has completely fallen asleep. Initiating a finisher on an unalerted enemy before the sleep animation completes will initiate a Front/Back Finisher instead (notable difference in that weapons may have different damage multipliers for Front/Back and Stealth finishers, and critical damage is applied differently).
Enemies retain their current alert status upon being put to sleep (e.g., non-alerted enemies will remain so while sleeping, and alerted enemies will remain alert even if put to sleep).
Sleeping enemies will not have their sleep duration reset if another Sleep Arrow makes impact within range. The sleep effect must expire before it can be reapplied.
Affects Grineer Sensor Regulator drones; will cause them to remain in one place for the duration of the effect. Will not disable their sensor beam.
Drones which have been put to sleep will not immediately react to a Noise Arrow which would otherwise have affected them, based upon range, but upon the expiration of Sleep Arrow's effects, they will move to the location of the Noise Arrow.
A special cyclic display located above Ivara's weapon stats in the HUD will show the currently equipped arrow type along with a charge meter that displays the charge state of Quiver before firing. If using Cloak Arrows or Sleep Arrows, the display will also show a countdown timer for the arrow's active duration.
Cloak Arrow cycles to display a barbed purple arrowhead, Dashwire Arrow cycles to display a yellow diamond-shaped arrowhead, Noise Arrow cycles to display a semicircular red arrowhead, and Sleep Arrow cycles to display a crescent-shaped blue arrowhead.
Quiver's arrows do not inflict damage upon impact.
Quiver only consumes energy upon launching an arrow; switching arrowheads will not consume energy.
Can be used to provide support from a distance for players reviving a teammate.
Targeting enemies and allies directly will create a moving cloak area. (Useful on strong melee enemies, but especially useful to cloak allies.)
During Syndicate Spy missions, this can be used to cloak the SyndicateOperatives which spawn in your vicinity at the start of the mission.
Note that this will not silence their weapons, however, and it will also require periodic refreshing to keep them invisible.
Dashwire Arrow
Can be used as a substitute for Bullet Jumping if losing Prowl or making a miscalculation in your jump would be costly otherwise. This is particularly effective in certain Spy vaults.
Noise Arrow
With enough range, Noise Arrows can attract enemies across multiple tiles into tight groups, allowing them to be dispatched at once for large amounts of Affinity, Standing, or Focus. This can generally be done easiest with either a Hushed Explosive Launcher or a Glaive equipped with Power Throw.
Noise Arrows can distract enemies from approaching and attempting to capture towers in Interception missions.
Sleep Arrow
Allows you to rush past enemies on your way to an objective or extraction.
Can be used to provide support from a distance for players reviving a teammate.
Sleep Arrow retains an enemy's current alert status upon casting, thus it can be used to level up automatic weapons quickly with Stealth Kill Affinity Bonuses by putting non-alert enemies to sleep before killing them. As long as the automatic weapon deals sufficient damage-per-second to quickly kill the enemy before they wake up on taking more than 50% damage, it will not trigger an alert state on the enemy, thus allowing the Stealth Kill bonus to occur.
Sleeping enemies will wake up only once the ability duration expires, or they are damaged below 50% of their current health; this allows easy leveling of weapons which are not silent, but deal heavy single-shot damage, such as the Hek, Ogris, Opticor, Tonkor, etc.
A sufficient duration on Sleep Arrow makes it possible to easily get close enough to enemies to use Covert Lethality, dispatching them silently and efficiently.
Can be used to stealthily put animals to sleep for easy capture for Conservation without affecting quality.
Some animal species have a chance to resist the effect of Sleeping Arrows.
Bugs
If you are playing using a controller and use Navigator, then fire an arrow from Quiver, you will be unable to switch arrow types for the remainder of the mission and only fire even if you press 1 when attempting to switch.
When cast on unalerted enemies, melee finisher does not grant stealth affinity bonus on kill.[citation needed]
The shield percentage used in the damage calculation accounts for Valkyr's shields at the time Paralysis is cast, not after the shield drain has been applied.
As an example, if Valkyr has 150 shields and a max ranked Intensify at the time a rank-4 Paralysis is cast, Paralysis will deal: Shields × 3.5 × (1 + Strength Mods) =150 × 3.5 × 1.3 = 682.5 damage.
Valkyr's shields will be reduced to: Shields × 0.67 =150 × 0.67 = 100.5 shields.
Stunned enemies are vulnerable to Finisher attacks. If the enemy cannot be attacked with a Finisher (either due to positioning or the enemy type), it will be susceptible to Stealth Damage Multipliers from melee attacks for the duration of the stun. As with other stealth attacks, coming into physical contact with the enemy while attacking will temporarily remove the damage bonus.
Prolonged Paralysis is a Warframe Augment Mod for Valkyr that increases Paralysis's stun duration, as well as slowly pulling affected enemies towards her.
Shields drained this way will reset the shield recharge delay, as if Valkyr was hit.
Installing a decent Redirection and Fast Deflection mod helps by greatly improving the damage output as they are being utilized by this ability.
Redirection increases the damage dealt through greater total amount of shields lost.
Fast Deflection helps recover lost shields quickly.
Extended uses of this ability will recommend installations of Vitality and Steel Fiber mods in order to overcome damages after the Paralysis effects.
The way Paralysis is treated is similar to Banshee's Sonic Boom dealing a blast with tremendous knockbacks, but doing a full 360 angle of damage with half of the original range.
Paralysis can be used within the duration of Hysteria allowing Valkyr to expend her shields with no trouble receiving damage. This will still drain her shields in spite of her invulnerability.
This ability can be spammed due to its very low energy cost, this will heavily divide shields down to 0 if expended drastically, but it will give potential stunlocks to lesser enemies effectively.
This ability synergizes well with Squad Shield Restore, as burst of shield recharges allow Valkyr to spam full loads of shield damage at a group of enemies more effectively.
In Sabotage Missions which you need to destroy several small cylinders after the reactor core has been exposed, a single Paralysis is sufficient to quickly destroy all the cylinders.
Bugs
When used repeatably, Valkyr's scream may sometimes skip over itself and not play. This is merely audible however.
Misc:30 m/s (cloud movement speed) 100% (status cleanse on cast) 2 s (stun duration)
Info
Wukong disappears into a cloud and hides himself from enemy view for 2 seconds. In this form, Wukong moves at 30 meters per second, gaining vertical and horizontal flight capabilities using the movement (WASD ), crouch (Ctrl ), and jump (Spacebar ) hotkeys, similar to Archwing Maneuvers but without the Afterburner. While traveling in the cloud, Wukong is invulnerable to damage, cleanses all Status Effects, and restores 0.5% / 0.6% / 0.8% / 1% health per meter travelled. Enemies that come within the cloud's radius of 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 meters are temporarily stunned for 2 seconds. Cloud Walker can be manually cancelled by pressing the ability key again (default 2 ) or by attacking.
Health restore per meter travelled is affected by Ability Strength.
Unalerted enemies staggered by Cloud Walker remain unalerted during the stagger animation, and thus can engage Stealth Kill Affinity Bonuses when killed.
Cloud Walker can pass through Spy vault's defenses without triggering an alarm.
Ability Synergy: When activating Cloud Walker with an active Celestial Twin, the twin becomes invulnerable to damage and receives its health restore per meter travelled bonus. After Cloud Walker ends, Wukong's twin is teleported to his side instantly.
Wukong cannot cast other abilities, perform parkour Maneuvers or general interactions while channeling this ability.
An equipped Sentinel with Vacuum will still collect nearby items and hold onto them for you to collect when Cloud Walker ends, similar to Hydroid's Undertow.
Void Dash leaves a trail of fire that deals 100 / 200 / 300 / 400 / 600 / 1000 damage/s over 3 / 6 / 9 / 12 / 12 / 14s. Void Dash will now stun enemies instead of displacing them.

Stunned enemies are opened up to finisher attacks for the duration of the stun.
However, if Void Radiance is also chosen, its blind effect will override Blazing Dash's stun upon leaving void mode after a dash, removing the finisher opportunity. It is therefore not advised to not take Void Radiance if attempting to utilize Blazing Dash for the finisher vulnerability.
Mercies are special finishers that can be performed using the Parazon on weakened enemies marked by a Parazon symbol. Players can gain a buff upon performing mercies based on the mods equipped on their Parazon. The trigger and animations for Mercies are completely independent of melee weapons, and do not require having a melee weapon equipped.
When a Mercy opportunity has been triggered, a red Parazon symbol will appear above the target for 10 seconds. This indicates that a Mercy Finisher can be performed. The Parazon mark and Mercy opportunity will disappear after 10 seconds.
Mercy opportunities can trigger up to twice on the same target, but the second instance will have a much shorter duration.
Like Stealth and Front/Back Finishers, Mercies also deal True Damage, consisting of two parts: Mercies Damage = Enemy residual health + 1
(Undocumented) Stealth and Front/Back finishers are now bound to interact key (PC default X ).
(Undocumented) Stance changes also come with buffs to all finisher multipliers. Every weapon class has at least one buff to the finisher moves they can perform (ground, front, back, and stealth).
Improved finisher hit detection for multiple weapons. Reticles will now flash red when a finisher can be performed and with each hit for multistrike finisher moves.
Multistrike finisher moves will have their damage split amongst each hit instead of now being delivered all at the end.
Finishing Touch as well as several Ability Augments (e.g. 
Sarpa) or 3x (
