Based on whether you press or hold this ability, she will use Enigma Thrust differently.
Press

Hold
- Lynette will enter a high-speed Pilfering Shadow state and apply Shadowsign to a nearby opponent.
- When this high-speed state ends, Lynette will unleash her Enigma Thrust. If there is an opponent with Shadowsign applied to them nearby, Lynette will approach them in a flash before using Enigma Thrust.

Bogglecat Box
- Taunts nearby opponents, attracting their attacks.
