A little clarification for Medusa Skin please

[-Okashira-]

the description for medusa skin (maxed):

"Basilisk Flare grants a 50% chance to petrify enemies for 10 seconds when struck with melee weapons for the duration of the mission"

the only reason i bothered putting points into this school was because i thought I would have a 50% chance to petrify enemies that I struck with a melee weapon.  Needless to say i was confused about why i wasnt petrifying anything until i read the wiki.  this was a long time ago for me and i dont care about the wasted focus anymore, but it might save some newer players some grief. a new description could be something like:

"Basilisk Flare grants a 50% chance to petrify enemies for 10 seconds that strike the player with melee weapons for the duration of the mission."

you need to activate 5 first. Then only melee enemy will have 50% chance got petrified. Same story like Frost Passive.

 

But anyway...I most interested with additional armor rather than that

yea a while back it use to be Medusa's touch that petrified enemies when you strucked them but since DE decided to nerf that over lets say madurai or naramon, it now requires enemies to hit you with melee weapons
