Sudden StrikeSudden Strike's Critical Stat is Listed as Unnormalized, meaning this passive is one of the few that could completely ignore some Raid/Challenge Environmental debuffs that reduces critical rate. (which are Also Listed as Unnormalize Reduction on Users Stats)
Sudden StrikeSudden Strike's duration and re-activation cooldown starts counting upon gaining the buff, making the actual re-activation cooldown only 3 seconds.

Despite the passive belonging to Sheath Knight, the passive icon displays Infinity Sword's weapon.
This passive acts as a replacement for the previous passive, Fighting Spirit, which had the same effect of making all hits critical for a certain period, though it was tied to Brutal Slayer's MP burn effect at the time (which still shares the same activation rate as this passive does).
