Description

Cicada Skin Shed is an expanded class supportive skill available as Ninja. It will make all normal attacks and almost all physical offensive skills do zero damage. This skill will also send the caster back 7 cells if the attack used was meant to hit. In terms of dodging skill based attacks, Cicada Skin Shed will dodge skills whose damage can be modified with % cards. So skills like Sonic Blow, Asura Strike, etc. can be dodged with Cicada Skin Shed. The downside is since this only works with skills whose damage can be modified with % cards; magic spells, the magical half of Soul Destroyer, Cart Termination, etc. cannot be dodged with this skill. The skill also cannot dodge elemental attacks from monsters.

Notes

  • FLEE, Perfect Dodge, Safety Wall, and Kyrie Eleison take priority over Cicada Skin Shed; if one causes the attack to fail, Cicada does not activate.
  • If Mirror Image is active at the same time as Cicada Skin Shed, both skills are triggered.
  • In WoE the dodge effect applies but there is no backslide effect.
  • Any effect given by the attack will still apply, despite no damage being taken. For example, you can be frozen (while simultaneously being thrown back) if you are attacked with a weapon that can freeze.
  • Effects of cards that trigger when the user is being hit (ie. Pest Card) are still applied, with the caster taking no damage.
  • This skill cannot be dispelled with Dispell.
  • The skill can be used in combination with a Strong Shield to remove the knockback effect.
