Frequency Shift
Exiting Stealth allows entering Shadow Veil after a brief delay. After exiting Shadow Veil, using a Dagger to attack enemies within a short time will cause you to re-enter Shadow Veil for a fixed duration after a short delay. The maximum number of times you can re-enter Shadow Veil through Frequency Shift after exiting Shadow Veil is 3. This count resets each time you exit Stealth.
Element of Surprise
After exiting Stealth or Shadow Veil, all Dagger backstabs are treated as critical hits for a period of time.
Ankle Cut
After Shadow Wheel Slash hits an enemy, reduce their Movement Speed for a period of time.
Haste
Each time you enter Stealth or Shadow Veil, your Movement Speed is greatly increased for a short duration.
