Lacerate

melee attack

What it does

Lacerate is a melee attack skill that performs two slashes: one aimed just to the left, then one just to the right. The slashes damage all enemies in a cone in front of the attacker. Each slash does less damage than a single hit from Cleave, but the two slashes overlap in the middle, hitting enemies in front twice

Bleeds enemies out in a fan of blades.

Level requirement: 12.
