==Skill functions and interactions==
Flicker Strike can consume [[Power Charge]]s to strike two additional enemies per power charge. Characters cannot gain Power Charges while attacking with Flicker Strike.
[[Profane Ritual]] provides a delayed source of Power Generation which works well with Flicker Strike when [[trigger]]ed.
Modifiers to area damage do appear to affect Flicker Strike, despite being a [[strike]] skill with no obvious area damage component. [[Area of effect]] has no apparent effect on the hit itself, but it does modify the targeting range of the teleport.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bymCWDEzDBQ</ref>
