Vayne draws a heavy crossbow from her back, and fires a huge bolt at her target, dealing damage and knocking them back. If they collide with terrain, they are impaled, dealing bonus damage and stunning them.

Readying herself for an epic confrontation, Vayne gains increased Attack Damage, invisibility during Tumble, and triple the bonus Movement Speed from Night Hunter.
