Notes

Though it lacks the glitz and glamour of other attack skills and often does less damage, this skill is valuable for its extremely low recharge time. Though the individual damage output may be lower than that of Pure Strike, Swift Chop, Thrill of Victory, and so on, over time this skill can do far more damage because it can be used far more often. However, it can drain a Warrior's meagre energy pool very quickly, so it is advisable to have a Zealous weapon upgrade and/or to make use of Warrior's Endurance if you plan to use this skill very often.

This skill, like Pure Strike, is useful as a replacement for Sever Artery and Gash for sword Warriors who are operating in regions with many enemies who don't bleed.
