==Trait Synergies==Various [[Monk traits]] augment this skill. (Since most Monk skills depend on base weapon damage and probably attack speed, traits which enhance those, and not the skill specifically, are also listed here.)* No [[Precisionsynergies]]: Increase melee damage for each point in dexterity.* [[Intimidation]]: Increases damage done and reduces vendor costs.* [[Cruelty]]: Increases chance with any of critical strikes.* the [[Weak Spotpassive skill]]: Increases critical strike damage.* [[Rapid Strikes]]: Increases attack speed.* [[Frenzied Attacks]]: Increases chance of critical strikes as well as their damage.'''Note:''' The current [[trait]] list is very out-of-date and will no doubt be overhauled before game releases are yet known.
<blockquote>''This one seems like it would be very useful against big bosses, since it makes them susceptible to damage, while making them deal less to you. Throwing in stage 2 or 3 of this in the midst of other more useful combo attacks could be helpful, now and then, since the curse-like debuff can hit multiple enemies in close proximity.</blockquote>
Skill tiers were removed for the July 2011 Press Event, and Crippling Wave became a level 8 skill.
