    The main issue with this is the boat ride to orbis, some players may not know dark sight is not functional against balrogs. It's usually a tell when haste does not function in areas such as jump quests, dark sight in conjunction also does not function but visual functionality might make think you can still avoid damage. Disabling the ability to use the skill on maps like that might clear up the misconception and help people not get baited into taking damage when they think they shouldn't...or just make it functional on the boat ride to orbis (which I think would be hard to code since it's probably complicated to make it functional on the boat ride but nonfunctional on jump quests).

    Low priority QoL but just something that I noticed is unintuitive.

    but the boat ride, just like vip cab in lith harbor, is intentionally a noob trap

    why that?
    it can still saves you, if the balrog doesnt cast a skill and fly towards you instead. dark sight wont save you on boss maps (and balrog is a boss), and we cant just remove it cuz sometimes its useful

    It shouldn’t. Magic damage should be the only thing hitting you.

    "It's usually a tell when haste does not function in areas such as jump quests, dark sight in conjunction also does not function" I believe is the correlation.

    It's because of the property that stops you from increasing your speed or using mobility skills. I dont know why this exists there, probably to stop people from flash jumping out of the map...? If somebody FJs off the ship thats their problem IMO

    something i recall in the past, FJ and other mobility skills were possible somewhere around pre-ludi/leafre era, maybe the map got changed from normal to jq as versions got older or a bug that was fixed.
