Info

  • Excalibur Umbra expends EnergyOrb50 Energy to howls, releasing an intense flash of light that affects enemies within AbilityRangeBuff8 / 12 / 15 / 25 meters and stuns them for AbilityDurationBuff7 / 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.

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.
