Calico Leaping Slash When cast point-blank.
Silver Boot Kick When cast point-blank.
Silver (Transformed) Mauling Leap When cast point-blank.

Interactions with Stealth

  • Attacking, using most abilities, and using most items will break Shadow Strike's Stealth.
  • Additional activations of most abilities that can be recast will break Stealth (e.g. recasting Mina's Sanguine Retreat or redirecting Ivy's Kudzu Connection tether to another ally).
