Dark Sword is an instant skill of the Shadow Officiator (Akhan).

Attacks the target with your magically imbued weapon. Can be used while camouflaged.

Effect

Damage = 40 × g × (L + 3 × (g − 1)) × the level difference factor. Neither Magic Power nor Magic Resistance counts. Using it does not end the caster's hiding. See Magic damage.

In the formulas, k is the skill's step (1 to 24), g its grade (1 to 4 for I to IV) and L the step within the grade (1 to 6), so k = 6 × (g − 1) + L.

MP per use is for the first to the last step of the grade.

Grade	MP per use	Range	Area	Stats to learn the steps
I	15 to 90	6 m	—	DEX 5 to 30 and STR 5 to 30
II	120 to 270	8 m	—	DEX 35 to 60 and STR 35 to 60
III	315 to 540	10 m	—	DEX 65 to 90 and STR 65 to 90
IV	600 to 900	12 m	—	DEX 95 to 120 and STR 95 to 120

Each book adds one step. A book works only on a skill of its own grade.
