Notes[edit]

  • Scholar Olenn's Raven Illusion provides the same exact skills as Become the Raven.
  • Rangers using this elite skill will have their pet deactivated until they transform back.
When hovering over this skill, the chain skill shown is "Release the Raven", which states "Shape-shift back from norn raven form." However, when using the skill, the actual chain skill is Leave Transform.
