Shadow Backslide

[Passive] When Raven uses Shadow Step, pressing X allows him to perform a backflip and drop 3 grenades. If the grenades do not come into contact with any targets, they will explode and light the area on fire, damaging anything within range. Pressing the skill key again during a Shadow Step will reverse the direction. You can then press the skill key a final time to continue in the original direction. MP cost for Shadow Piercing will also decrease.

Tips and Details

  • Shadow Backslide is unlocked through the Advanced Branch Skill Quest.
    • The quest can be obtained at Lv40 from Camilla, the PvP NPC.
  • The reverse Shadow Step's distance is considerably shorter than the forward version.
    • Keep in mind that altering the Shadow Strafe direction does not affect attack direction. You will attack the direction you're facing.
  • Any Skill Note affiliated with both Shadow Step and Shadow Piercing will still activate under the influence of Shadow Backslide.
  • Shadow Strafe's distance can be extended in it's original direction by quickly tapping the key twice after the original strafe is about to end. This causing Shadow Strafe to trigger the backwards dash quickly then into the last dash, allowing almost double the distance of a normal strafe.
