Shadow Walk is an ability available to Rogues. It makes the Rogue Invisible and generates both Opportunity and Readiness while active.
Shadow Walk is necessary for some skills to function (
Smoke Trick), and can combo with some of the Rogue's other abilities to enhance them further (
Backstab, M. II.) Shadow Walk itself cannot be used while in combat, though other abilities can trigger Shadow Walk, allowing the Rogue a chance to escape or generate Opportunity before re-engaging.

Detail(s)[ | ]
Shadow Walk does not take up a slot on either the action or utility hotbar. Once it is scribed, it is available via its own dedicated button that sits above the the default position for the utility bar. If desired, it can be unscribed by right-clicking the icon.
- Note: This UI element cannot be moved and will remain in its location even if you move the utility or action hotbars.
Shadow Walk cannot be activated in combat. It ends immediately if:
- You take damage (e.g from an AoE/DoT). This includes acclimation effects that deal damage/apply a DoT. Taking damage from falling does NOT break stealth.

Mana Cost Per Second Removed.
Description Changed.
Rogues have carefully honed their craft of sneaking around and hiding in the shadows. But Rogues who have learned to Shadow Walk have developed the ability to seemingly bring the shadows with them, remaining unseen while moving. While Shadow Walk is active, you are invisible to living, non-magical targets and can move around freely at reduced speed. (Consumes mana over time).
