v.99 - Chaos: Age of Heroes - Skill Changes

Advanced Dark Sight now grants a chance for Dark Sight to be enabled when attacking or being attacked.

Someone from KMS might want to look into this for us. The Korean description stated that Advanced Dark Sight grants a chance for Dark Sight to be enabled when attacking, and the English description even says the same. Dark Sight is only enabled when being attacked though, it never activates while attacking monsters.

I've never had Dark Sight enabled while attacking.

Same, never had it activate while attacking. Dark Sight can pretty much be removed from the keyboard though since pressing Chains of Hell will activate it, and pressing it again will actually use the skill. Kind of convenient, and maybe it's referencing that ability.

That's what I assumed it meant from the beginning. o.o

It should do that with Phantom Blow, too, since it needs Dark Sight as well, doesn't it?
