Nightblade Support is a support skill gem. It causes the supported attack skill to grant Elusive on critical strike, with increased buff effect and causes Elusive to also grant the skill bonus critical strike chance and multiplier. It causes the supported skill to be restricted to claws and daggers.

Skill functions and interactions

• The critical strike multiplier from Elusive from Supported Skills also grants +x% to Critical Strike Multiplier for Skills Supported by Nightblade is tied to the Elusive buff itself, which means the amount of critical strike multiplier gained will scale with Elusive's current buff effectiveness.
