Enemies that are near-death should fear her ability to '''[[Vindicta#Assassinate|Assassinate]]''' at long-range with a devastating sniper shot.


A girl who was accused of witchcraft and killed by [[John Hathorne]] during the [[wikipedia:Salem_witch_trials|Salem Witch Trials]] of the 1600s, Vindicta returned to this world during the first [[Maelstrom]].

* Vindicta can melee and parry without interrupting flight, allowing her to use {{ItemIcon|Counterspell}}.
* The 1 ability point upgrade does ''NOT'' increase Vindicta's base Ammo capacity by 50%, it only increases her Ammo capacity by 50% of her base Ammo. This means that it will increase her ammo capacity by the same amount every time and will not affect other sources of Ammo increase such as '''[[Titanic Magazine]]'''.
* Vindicta cannot dash during the flight due to dash hotkey (<code>SHIFT</code>) being overriden by Fly Up. Rebinding either of those allows the player to dash normally during the flight.
* When killing a target with Flight active and the T3 upgrade, flight is recast, giving Vindicta a burst of speed in the air, but no additional height.
* The T1 upgrade does ''NOT'' increase Vindicta's total Ammo capacity by 50%, it only increases her Ammo capacity by 50% of her base Ammo. This means that it will increase her ammo capacity by the same amount every time and will not affect other sources of Ammo increase such as {{ItemIcon|Titanic Magazine}}.

* The damage scales up from 50% to 100% after one second of being scoped.
* If a target dies within 4 seconds after being hit with Assassinate, Vindicta will still get the bonus weapon damage stack.
* T3 Assassinate upgrade grants bonus weapon damage retroactively. (adds +4% Weapon Damage per individual stack already acquired upon upgrading.)
* Each use of a charge counts as a separate ultimate cast for {{ItemIcon|Lightning Scroll}}'s "once per target per ultimate" restriction. Hitting a target multiple times will apply multiple delayed stuns.
* Assassinate isn't affected by [[Disarm]].
