Backstab

Backstab is an upgrade of Bladedancer's Blink Strike melee ability. The upgrade allows Blink Strike to double damage when it is dealt from behind.

• Combine Backstab with Cloak for almost guaranteed double damage.

• Backstab allows the player to perform a long-range melee instant kill against enemy players in Crucible.

• It allows you to assassinate people like the good old Halo days! This perk would be incredibly useful in PvP if the radar wasn't so damn useful. It allows Blink Strike to one-hit-kill any enemy you manage to stab in the back. The problem is it is very difficult to sneak up on people since you're pretty much ALWAYS on the radar, even if you're standing still! I personally never use this perk, but it might be useful in PvE if you're playing with friends and manage to get behind enemies.
