Uses attack rate to summon.
Assassin and any Shadow Warrior or Shadow Master can summon maximum of five sentries between them, which can include any combination of the following:
- Blade Sentinel
- Charged Bolt Sentry
- Wake of Fire
- Lightning Sentry
- Wake of Inferno
- Death Sentry
Once five sentries have been summoned, summoning another will dispel the earliest summoned.
Must be summoned within line of sight, but sentry target must be within its line of sight and awareness range (so sentry can target hostile units which aren't in Assassin's line of sight).
When no corpse is available, fires a piercing lightning bolt with each shot, once every 31 frames. Lightning bolts are size 2, which means that they can collide with more than one target simultaneously. Although Last Collide is enabled, since bolts are not destroyed upon collision a single bolt can collide alternately with two adjacent targets, potentially applying its lightning damage twice to each target before it is out of range. [2]
Lightning bolts become longer range as skill level increases, but target needs to be within awareness range of sentry.

+% Lightning Damage synergy bonus does not apply to minimum lightning damage.
+% Fire Skill Damage doesn't affect its corpse explosions.
LoD: Since damage is applied by the sentry and not the character, +% Lightning Skill Damage, -% Enemy Fire Resistance and -% Enemy Lightning Resistance do not apply

When corpse is exploded, damage is applied within radius of corpse and calculated based on 40-80% of its normal average base life: this means damage from corpses of Champion, Unique, Super Unique and boss monsters and any minions is calculated based on 40-80% of the average base life of a normal monster of their level.
Skill description radius is only accurate for odd-numbered skill levels: for even-numbered skill levels, the average of physical damage radius and fire damage radius is displayed. [3]
Damage does not increase with player count.
When target mlvl>clvl, damage is multiplied by clvl/mlvl. [4]
50% damage is converted to fire damage.
Damage is always applied within radius: it cannot be blocked in any way.
Damage not reduced by -% Damage, applied by the following:
- Taunt
- Battle Cry
- Weaken
- Decrepify
Sentries cannot be targeted or harmed, but expire once they have fired their maximum number of shots.

+(1-3) Death Sentry (Assassin Only) can spawn on ilvl >36 Exceptional and Elite claws (Hand Scythe and higher).
