Ghostly Strike is a tier 3 talent in the rogue's Subtlety tree and gives a lightweight Evasion designed for more regular use.

Notes

Ghostly Strike increases your dodge chance by 15%, even if the attack fails to hit.

Improvements

  • Remorseless Attacks, will give your next Ghostly Strike a 20% or 40% increased chance to crit after killing an opponent that yields honor or experience. The improved crit chance lasts for 20 seconds.
  • Lethality increases the critical strike damage bonus of your Ghostly Strike by 6%, 12%, 18%, 24%, or 30%.
  • Glyph of Ghostly Strike increases the damage dealt by 50% and the duration of its effect by 4 sec., but increases its cooldown by 10 sec.

Tips and tactics

  • Ghostly Strike stacks with Evasion, giving you a 65% dodge increase when both abilities are active.
  • Ghostly Strike is not affected by weapon speed normalization, so the best weapons to equip when using Ghostly Strike are slow, heavy hitting weapons such as swords and maces.
