Tips and Details

  • Best used on mobs and bosses that do not move much or stationary mobs and bosses, in order to get the full damage from the later, non-flinching attacks.
    • In PvP, the light stagger from this skill can cause opponents to be able to react quicker than you can after casting the skill.
  • The cloud gives 2 MP per hit.
  • Best if used at the start of a combo when the enemy is against the wall to deal most damage.
  • The cloud grows larger every second, extending in the direction the caster was facing when casting the skill.
