Smoke

Assassin skill · Shadow line · tier 4

Beta 0.7.2

Smoke in the face: it blinds whoever was aiming.

It is only used in combat once it is placed on the hero's active bar, and its 10 s cooldown is before cooldown reduction.

Values by rank

Smoke scales with Blind. Its value at each rank is 217 + 62 × rank:

Rank	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
Value	279	341	403	465	527	589	651	713	775	837
Blind	+2.79%	+3.41%	+4.03%	+4.65%	+5.27%	+5.89%	+6.51%	+7.13%	+7.75%	+8.37%

Blind is a percentage stat, so the value is used as written (in basis points, shown here as a percentage), times the skill power.

Blind = value × skill power
skill power = 1 + 1% per point in the other Shadow skills + 2% per rank of each skill that boosts it
