Notes

• This is a spell, not a skill with a range of touch (despite some confusion created due to the fact that most of the time this spell is cast while adjacent to the target). Therefore, it is not stopped by skills such as "Can't Touch This!" (which would foil the similar skills Throw Dirt and Signet of Midnight).
• This skill can be useful if you are suddenly separated from your target (usually due to a Shadow Step [or its ending] on either side).
• Because it induces blindness to "target foe and all adjacent foes", this skill can be very useful in PvE, where enemy warriors can have a tendency to bunch together.
• This is one of the few Assassin spells that have full range instead of half normal range.
