    Assaulter never felt like a dmg skill, but more of a utility skill. Even then the benefit it gives only really matters if you are traveling vertically, but at its current short range, it feels more of a gimmick than an actual skill. Sometimes you can get through a map faster just by jumping and using Boomerang Step instead of using Assaulter and getting knocked back by mobs.

    If you compare other mobility skills, Assaulter just feels like underwhelming.
    • Rush : small dash which requires a mob, but it pushes multiple mobs back, even bosses
    • Teleport : requires no mob, but is good both vertically and horizonatal
    • Flash Jump: hands down the best mobility skill in the game. Leaves everything else in the dust.
    • Assaulter: Essentially a worse version of Teleport, since it requires a mob, has lower range, and has a longer post-cast delay.

    A 50% increase of its cast range and blink range wouldn't break Shads, but it would definitely just slightly increase their overall map mobility. Another unique mechanic you could give it would be to have always place you on the opposite side of the mob from where you first cast it.

    Some possible QoL buffs :
    • Have Assaulter always place you on the opposite side of the mob from where you first cast it. Since it requires a mob unlike flash jump or teleport, perhaps give it a unique mechanic for insane mobility when fighting thicc bosses like Manon. (Perhaps put a range limit on this if it seems too unbalanced)
    • Remove the minimum cast range so that if you wanted to jump off a rope onto the edge ledge, you would be able to cast it if the only mob you can dash to is sitting on the corner.
    • Make Assaulter cast-able on NPCs
    Let me know what you guys think!
