Notes

• Shadow deals proc damage, and thus will not trigger spell effects.
• Shadow's on-hit damage does not apply to structures.
• The bonus damage dealt by Shadow benefits from  life steal.
• Juxtaposition's Light or Dark stacks are refreshed with the respective hit of basic attacks.
  • The user will still alternate between Light and Dark hits even if they are at maximum stacks of both bonuses.
