Notes

• The Enmity generated by your next attack (or Weapon Skill and potential Skillchain) is transferred to a player in front of you.
  • For Thief main job, damage is calculated by adding the AGI stat to weapon damage at the time the blow lands if the enmity-transferring conditions are met.
  • When added to Weapon Skills, the base damage is outside of the fTP multiplier. For high fTP WSs (like Rudra's Storm) this means that the base damage boost plays a relatively minor role in determining the final damage.
• This ability guarantees 100% accuracy when the activation conditions are met.
  • Accuracy bonus also applies to the offhand hit when dual-wielding.
• Assassin makes this job ability deal a critical hit if the enmity-transferring activation conditions are met (there is another player between the Thief and the monster).
  • This critical will apply even to Weapon Skills that do not normally Critical Hit.
• Ranged attacks are unaffected, and do not cancel the ability.
• Counter is affected, but does not cancel the ability.

• Equipment must remain on to increase effect.
