Notes[edit]

The increased Daze and Stun duration is not shown on tooltips.
  • On interrupt, you and your pet receive Moment of Clarity.png Attack of Opportunity, which increases the damage of your next attack by 50%.
  • Interrupts caused by your pet do not trigger the effect.
  • Skills that hit multiple times such as Rapid Fire will only have its first hit in the chain affected by this effect.
