Messenger's Gift ❘ 使者の贈り物	Arcane Item

In-Game Description A strange gift from the messengers, inhabitants of the dream who revere the brave hunters. Use to envelop oneself in a black nightmarish mist, then transform into a messenger. The illusion is a parlor trick, and any large movement will break the spell. To preserve the guise, proceed very slowly. Note 1: The same in-game description in US & UK versions. ✓ Note 2: Original Japanese text on Original Japanese Item Index page. ✓ Effects Using it requires only a single bullet with an arcane stat of 10. It does no damage, doesn't heal you, and has no scaling. All it does is turn you into a message! Well, it makes you look like one... as long as you don't make any large movements. If you try to run, roll, attack, or use an item, the effect will break. This spell is entirely for fooling other players online. Whether you are an invader setting up an ambush or a normal hunter hiding from the Vilebloods, this is the best camouflage you'll find in this nightmare. The best way to use this message is to find an environmental effect, such as the clouds of smoke in Old Yharnam, and hide there. Behind tall grass, trees, and other objects are other potential hiding spots. Blind corners near stairs also work. The main point is to never rely solely on the disguise; use its low height to keep out of sight! Then again, sometimes there's refuge in audacity... hide yourself in the most visible location and pray! Be warned that alert players will not fall for this trick, but it can be useful when you are on the run. You never know when the other player's concentration might lapse and allow you a chance to disguise yourself. Self Buff Limitation: Just as you can apply only one buff for the weapons, you cannot have more than one self buff active at the same time. Only exception is Beasthood generated by the Beast Claw. Therefore you can't combine effects of the items such as Arcane Items Messenger's Gift and Old Hunter Bone. Consumables Beast Blood Pellet, Blue Elixir, Lead Elixir and even special blood vials with self buff effect like Blood of Adeline, Blood of Adella, Blood of Arianna. So beware when going into the fight that you can't use two of before mentioned items and "cannot use" animation will be performed when trying so which can cost you the fight. Availability Treasure in (Main Story): Nightmare Frontier; at the end of Swampy Gorge from Central Swamp Bank guarded by Winter Lantern. If you need further assistance to find the item, you can follow the full Nightmare Frontier Map. Notes Turns you into messengers, if you run, roll, attack, or use item, the effect will break. AI enemies will be oblivious to you when Messenger's Gift is in the effect unless they saw you transforming, moving while transformed or wasn't already aggroed.
