Acquisition

Signet of Capture:

• Makdeh the Aggravating (Yatendi Canyons)

Notes

• This skill is useful in PvP for ambushing spellcasters. By combining this skill with shadow stepping combinations such as Shadow Walk and Distortion, you can ambush your target by teleporting to them, activating Tease, and then escape.
• Remember to find a way to prevent your target from hitting you. Used against Assassins or Dervishes (or even Warriors, though they suffer far less from the spell), this is as simple as activating Imagined Burden. For casters, Distortion can be effective, though kiting and hiding behind things is far less energy-intensive.
• This skill is best used against enemies with skills that have long recharge times or that need to cast a particular spell a lot to get any use out of it. Most Elementalist and Necromancer Blood Magic spells fall into this category.
• If you only need to disable one skill, Signet of Humility or Diversion are usually better options.

Trivia

• Tease's skill is thought to be a Night Elf from World of Warcraft, who are occasionally known to "strip-tease" in the game by removing their clothes and using the /dance emote.
