I am wondering what other assassin opinions are of these two abilities. Is it worth learning disarm when you have cresent kick? I have found crescent kick seems to have the same chances of disarming your opponent as disarm with the added advantage of damage. In my opinion i guess disarm is only useful when your opponent has a weapon and can't be kicked, although i can't remember off hand a mob with this status. Also i have searched the forum about the famous poisondagger ability now why is this a secret? I have found that the acidic ability puts acid in your opponents blood which works just like they are poisoned (every tick they take damage from it just like normal poison, but they can be poisoned as well so they take it twice.) Now i have noticed that you can get various messages with poisondagger: 1) Your poison dart misses ... (didnt work) and 4) ... starts suddenly as the dart hits ..., but then looks around in confusion. now 4) is when they are actually confused . I have done this against many mobs but never noticed anything happening to them. Perhaps it works only against players or they cant use there special skills like trip or bash not sure. Does anyone know what this does to them and poison darts sleep i have not tried yet. Hope this helps clear up poisondarts a bit for other players now help us all out and lets work these other poisons out including me.
2) Your poison dart knicks the skin of ... (hit them but didnt poison them)
3) For confusion, you can knick them but they resist the poison
