"Initiation" move list.

I'm still a little fuzzy on how the moves in the "Initiation" DLC work. What I can tell so far:

Bruce Wayne has no equivilant of Disarm or Multi-Ground Takedown
Batclaw is replaced with the euqivilant of Zip Kick from Robin (Multiplayer and Arkham City)
Smoke Bomb is essentially the same as Smoke Pellet, but can't be dropped in place for some reason?
Explosive Gel is replaced with some 3-charge bomb thing that I don't understand at all...
Bat Swarm is now a cone-shaped shuriken attack (basically a lot of Batarangs at once)
Batarangs are now Shurikens. Not sure if there is any difference when used as a quickfire gadget, but when aimed, they target a maximum of 2 rather than 3 targets. No option for a single shuriken.
Concussion Detonator is now Caltrops, seems to work identically to Catwoman's gadget from Arkham City (don't know if enemies can spot the caltrops and brush them asside as they could in that game). 3 charges maximum.
Detective Vision is now Concentration. Does not display heartbeat, emotional state, armements, or HUD info. Unsure of other differences.
Not sure if Bruce Wayne has any power gadget moves.

Has anybody else found anything they'd like to contribute or correct?

For some reason my combo breaks half the time when I use quickfire Caltrops... any idea why?

Some gadgets such as the ice/glue granades break combos if thrown in a row, maybe when throwing the caltrops you might've thrown repeatedly accidentally and it could break the combo.

I don't have this DLC but I might be able to help. Does the combo drop right after throwing the caltrops? Or does it drop when you are trying to strike someone who is near the caltrops? In Arkham City Catwoman would drop combos if you tried to strike someone who just tripped on a caltrop.
