Notes

• Works for melee and missile attacks.
• Has a 25% chance to activate on any melee or missile attack.
  • This activation rate is reduced proportionally if Dirty Fighting is lower than your active weapon skill as determined by your equipped weapon.
• All activated effects last 20 seconds.
• Although a specific effect won’t stack with itself, you can stack all three effects on one opponent at the same time. This means that when the skill activates at one attack height you can move to another attack height to try to land an additional effect.
