'''Flicker Strike''' is a [[melee]] [[attack]] skill that teleports the character to a nearby enemy and strikes it with their [[Quarterstaff]]. The skill strikes up to three additional enemies by expending a [[Power Charge]] on hit, but prevents the generation of power charges while in use.<ref>https://poe2db.tw/us/Skill_Gems</ref>
'''Flicker Strike''' is a [[quarterstaff]] [[strike]] [[skill]] that teleports the user towards an enemy to strike them. The skill will consume your [[power charge]]s to unleash additional teleporting strikes.
==Skill functions and interactions==
[[Profane Ritual]] provides a delayed source of Power Generation which works well with Flicker Strike when [[trigger]]ed.
Modifiers to area damage do appear to affect Flicker Strike, despite being a [[strike]] skill with no obvious area damage component. [[Area of effect]] has no apparent effect on the hit itself, but it does modify the targeting range of the teleport.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bymCWDEzDBQ</ref>
