How random? Oo Skuld  03:05, 7 May 2006 (CDT)


 * Can this teleport you so that you get stuck? I'm thinking about UW mainly. :) --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] 05:57, 19 May 2006 (CDT)


 * I'd be surprised if the game doesn't check to see if there is a free path from your first location to the second location before it moves you. Shandy 05:59, 19 May 2006 (CDT)


 * It's shadow step, so I assume it won't reach unreachable areas. Silk Weaker 07:48, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I haven't got stucked with Heart of Shadow. I use Shadow Heart often -with a mesmer and a nigro-, the shadow step is totaly random; so, if there is not a stepable place in direction of a step it simply lands over the fardest stepable place, this may result in not moving at all. --mariano 12:43, 14 August 2006 (CDT)

^ LOL at Skuld :) ^ But anyways, can anyone tell me what the hell this skill icon is supposed to be? It doesn't look like a heart, or a shadow... It looks like a sideways face with ectoplasm goo shooting out of the nose and into the mouth area.... - Insidious420 20:50, 17 January 2007 (CST)
 * I'm pretty sure it's a robed figure hunched over that is "on the wind" kind of like that one guy in Elektra starring Jennifer Garner (the bad guy). FRD 12:52, 5 March 2007 (CST)

health gain on hit
do you gain health on every hit or just the first? I'm assuming just the first hit.
 * Once. It says "the next time" you take damage, not "when" or "whenever" you take damage.  --68.142.14.88 15:12, 7 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Yes only once. Also, it heals when you get hit but before you take damage. So, if you are at full health, this doesn't work very well. --Vortexsam 15:19, 7 August 2006 (CDT)

before the damage dealt, duly noted. Good information to have.

All runners(imo) should be R/A with this skill and ranger run/evade skills. Opps spoiled my running build.--Coloneh 21:23, 7 October 2006 (CDT)

Does this work with Shadow Form or is it bugged? I'd get hit by a seige turtle with Heart of Shadow on...say for 70 damage. Heart of Shadow is supposed to heal for 150 so I wouldn't get it life loss right? It shows it triggers but I don't get the health gain. Even if I'm at half hp with Shadow Form on and Heart Of Shadow.. it shows it triggers.. but I just lose more hp. =/ Without Shadow Form even if I get hit for 1 damage it heals me.. 150 so I have no loss of hp.
 * Did you read the above? Heart of Shadow heals you before you take damage. --Kale Ironfist 18:53, 15 April 2007 (CDT)

Does this work like essence bond or balthazars spirit?
By that i mean if you tkae 0 dmg does it still count and it will heal you?66.189.41.238 20:42, 15 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Damage is damage, whether it is zero or 3526436.
