Feint

Job Ability

• Your next attack will greatly reduce an enemy's evasion.
• Obtained: Thief Level 75
• Recast Time: 0:10:00
• Duration: 0:01:00 or until a melee hit connects

Notes/Description Each merit decreases recast time by 2 minutes This effect is very noticeable. Evasion is very greatly reduced. Can stack with Sneak Attack and/or Trick Attack if so desired (guaranteed Evasion Down on first hit) Unlike Sneak Attack or Trick Attack, Feint still remains active despite missing. As long as a hit is landed (even for zero damage) within 1 minute of activation, Feint's evasion down effect will apply. It is not known for sure whether the effect induced is via a straight -evasion reduction, or a -%evasion reduction. The effect of feint decreases over the course of its 30 second lifespan. In testing, it's been seen that tested mobs have went from conning low evasion at the beginning of feint, to high evasion by the end of feint. This means that the decrease in potency from beginning to end is at least 40 evasion, if not greater. Test link is included in the discussion section.
