Thread: Patch 2.4 Notes - Preliminary

Doesn't look like we can use Sneak Attack and Trick Attack for coil or any important fights. Can only use under the effect of Hide, but can't use Hide in combat or against an enemy 10 lvls higher than you. Kind of lame. :/

I didn't see traits listed. So there's a possibility of them getting a trait that allows its use in combat. Now watch it be on a 30 or 60 second cooldown to avoid just spamming it.

This is true. Guess we'll have to wait for the full patch notes.

Well, Suiton gives the effect, Suiton. Now this is just some connecting the dots, but if you watch the Anniversary ninja gameplay video, you will see that after using Suiton (Giant Waterspout jutsu), 2 darkened skills become useable. We will get confirmation on patch day, but it seems like Suiton lets you use hidden skills in battle.

Assuming this is correct, Trick attack will most likely be used more often to enable easier burn phases.
