Notes

• The physical attacks do not have to hit the target to engage the selected skill.
• When this skill is executed, a window will appear from which the user can select which skill to use when the autocast happens.
• The skill is cast after the physical attack that activates it and is independent of the user's condition. For example, it will still activate while the user is silenced.
• The user is able to select any of the skills obtained from the current level available and also those of lower levels.
• Levels of autocasted spells is the half of Hindsight level. If autocasted spells has lower level than half of Hindsight levels, actual skill level will be autocasted instead.
• When the user is linked to the Sage Spirit, the Bolts will always come down at the maximum level learned by the user.
• Spells triggered by this skill do not have any cast time, but do have cast delay. Cast delays, however, will not prevent bolts from being triggered via this skill. As a result, it is possible to fire off bolts very quickly.
• The skills will all retain their special effects on their targets; Frost Diver will freeze, Fire Ball will have splash damage, etc.
• Misses anyone inside Blinding Mist.
• Can be combined with other autocast equipment. However, unlike this skill, most autocast effects require the user not to miss attacks to trigger them.

Known Bugs

• If the caster does not have any skill learned for the current level of this skill (This skill at level 1 can only use Napalm Beat), no popup menu will appear.
• When the caster does not select any skill from the popup menu (even pressing cancel), no skills can be executed anymore unless the player changes map or relogs.
