Bug:

While playing as Specter, entering Shadow Shroud during the arming time of this skill will reset the arming time and cause the skill to automatically be triggered when exiting Shadow Shroud.

• After the arming time, the area at the end of the casting animation will be marked.
• The recharge of this skill is independent of the trigger skill Shadow Portal.
• The thief's ability to activate the Shadow Portal can be tracked by the  Shadow Portal effect.
• The portal can only be used from the side that was placed last.
