Notes[edit]
- In Nightfall this skill becomes unlocked after recruiting either Margrid the Sly or Acolyte Jin, then it can be learned using a skill tome.
- The arrow leaves the bow ¼ seconds into this skill's activation, as attack skills hit halfway through their stated activation time.
- This skill has a ¾ second aftercast delay.
- Skills will not be disabled if they are easily interrupted (including Dazed) or interrupted by an effect such as Choking Gas or Spinal Shivers, as those trigger before Distracting Shot takes effect.
- Distracting Shot will not disable a skill that is prevented from being interrupted.
Trivia[edit]
- Prior to the May 29, 2008 game update, this skill received no bonus damage from some preparations.
- The functionality of this skill has changed since its introduction; see its skill history for details.
