This skill seems perfectly suited for chest runs and solo farming. I can't wait to put it through it's paces.

I think this skill is very nice! You can trick people with it

Pretty sure that had already become obselete in PvP during the last WPE.

Now, it is defintely an awesome PvE skill.

Works incredibly well. See a chest surrounded by baddies? Buff yourself up, hit this, run in and grab chest, then hit another stance to cancel this one out which instantly teleports you back to where you began. I love it.

I dont understand the whole teleportation thing, except maybe with trapping, If you get in close, people target you, If you teleport to the back lines you just bring them with you cause you are still targetted right? Dont get me wrong, I'm not slamming the skill. Just wondering.

If you teleport out of aggro, they un-aggro. If someone has aggro already, they usually keep it. For example, I have had great success with my experimental trapninja build in PvE. Allow tanks to grab aggro, then teleport in and start trapping. By the time the aggro switches to you they are all blinded from Dust Trap.

Using this skill on chest runs I usually roll with 8 in Shadow Arts, which gives me 13 seconds IIRC. When that time runs out (or I force it to end by switching stances), I teleport all the way back to where I initiated Shadow of Haste. Let's say you only use half the time - you can run quite a distance at 25% speed boost in 6 or 7 seconds. So, when I teleport back out, I lose all aggro.

wish this sucker had a shorter recharge time :P

Maybe we'll get an elite version of this one in future chapters. if dark escape and this skill made sweet love and had a baby with less recharge time.... assassins would rock again XD
