• Ash throws down a smoke bomb that staggers enemies for a short duration within a radius of 10 meters. Ash becomes untargetable for 2 / 4 / 6 / 8 seconds.
  • Duration is affected by Power Duration.
  • Stagger radius is affected by Power Range.
  • Stealth Damage Multipliers are applied to melee attacks. Coming into physical contact with the enemy while attacking will temporarily remove the damage bonus.
• Even though Ash is untargetable, enemies will continue to attack near his last known location, and will make attempts to retaliate when harmed.
• Does not make Ash silent. Firing an unsuppressed weapon while under the effects of Smoke Screen will still alert nearby enemies to your presence.
• Hides Ash from Security Cameras which prevents them from activating laser barriers.
• Smoke Screen will also apply to any equipped companion.
• Ash can not be knocked down or staggered during the cast animation.
• Can only be used on the ground.
• Conclave rating: 10 / 10 / 20 / 30.

Maximization is a form of specialization: mods may be blended to result in values that vary between the top-end limits listed here. Click any maximized link to learn how to build it.

• Maximized Power Duration increases the duration to 20.56 seconds.
  • Reduces the stagger radius to 3.4 meters.
• Maximized Power Efficiency reduces the cost to 8.75 energy.
  • Reduces the duration to 3.2 seconds.
• Maximized Power Range increases the stagger radius to 23.5 meters.
  • Has no negative effect on this ability.
• Maximized Power Strength has no positive effect on this ability.
  • Increases the cost to 54.25 energy.

Falling into an endless pit (or anywhere which causes the game to teleport you back up) will completely remove Smoke Screen, regardless of the level it is at.

• This gives a hint that falling into a pit does instantly destroy any sort of defense systems in the Warframe (health, shields, armor, etc.), although this applies to almost every beneficial ability in the game.
