The user channels to deliver a powerful strike. Releasing the channel with perfect timing will launch a wave of fire forward.

Skill functions and interactions

Perfect Strike is the only channelling strike skill in the game, so it is the only skill that can use both Barbs and Crackling Barrier. Even though Perfect Strike doesn't actually hit the target until after the button is released, you are still considered to be channelling it until you hit, so Barbs includes the Lightning Thorns Damage from Crackling Barrier. Since Barbs is a separate hit from the Perfect Strike hit, the thorns damage is the same whether you have perfect timing or not. Perfect timing will hit a larger area, however, so it may apply Barbs to more targets.

Item	Description

Version history

Version	Changes
0.4.0	Perfect Strike: Now deals 157-343% of Attack Damage (previously 142-312%) at Gem levels 5-20.
0.3.0	Perfect Strike: Perfect Strike now has an Attack Damage of 470-1029% at Gem levels 5-20 (previously 598-1310%). A Perfect Strike now has +35 to Melee Strike Range (previously +14). Perfect Strike's Attack time is now 30% of base (previously 35%). Fixed a bug where the Perfect Strike Skill incorrectly had the Duration tag. Fixed a bug where Perfect Strike's visual effects did not match the damaging area.
0.2.0	Many Skills have had their base damage and/or damage growth per level rebalanced. Most of these changes are not specifically mentioned below as the changes are too widespread. The mana cost for all Attacks, Marks and Warcries has been reduced, most notably at higher Gem levels. Perfect Strike no longer always Ignites, and now has an Attack Speed of 35% of base (previously 45%). Quality now provides 0-20% more Ignite Chance (previously 0-20% increased Magnitude of Ignite you inflict). Perfect Strike also now deals damage in a wider area close to the player, making it less likely to miss enemies standing next to the player.
0.1.0	Introduced to the game.
