Notes
- Next attack deals a critical hit, if behind the monster or the character is invisible by using the Hide ability.
- This critical will apply even to Weapon Skills that do not normally Critical Hit.
- For Thief main job, damage is calculated by adding the DEX stat to weapon damage at the time the blow lands.
- This ability guarantees 100% accuracy when the activation conditions are met.
- Accuracy bonus also applies to the offhand hit when dual-wielding.
- Ranged attacks are unaffected, and do not cancel the ability.
- Counter attacks are affected and do not cancel the ability, but are only possible on monsters that do not reposition or when used with Bully.
