*There has been some talk about Clearance working differently in WoE but some say it doesn't. So I'll leave this part as "Needs More Info".

I don't believe you can cast Clearance on yourself [source]

I'm interested in knowing the current effects of Clearance. Could someone please provide me the official behaviour of this skill?

To eloborate a little bit more:

Fully debuffs selected party member or selected foe (monsters only) by chance.

• Does not remove Divest (negative buff), Chemical Protects (positive buff), Masquerades (negative buff) and Soul Link (positive buff).
• Can remove some buffs that can't be removed by Sage's Dispell.

• Example: Enchant Deadly Poison (positive buff), Runes (positive buff) from a Rune Knight, Genetic's Mandragora Howling status (negative de-buff), Guillotine Cross' New Poisons (negative de-buff on enemies).

• Rogue Spirit (anti-Dispell effect) doesn't work against this skill although the Soul Link buff won't removed when this skill used to the target.

----

I'm a bit confused on the logical part of this. It indicates to work as a debuff.. When it can only be used on party members (description relates Clearance to Dispell).

So basically what it does is when your party members are debuffed by enemies, you Dispell your partymembers completely, also taking away their own used buffs?

It also states that it can remove buffs which Dispell cannot but why would u relate to Dispell when Clearance is a partymember only buff? Clearance can dispell Enchant Deadly Poison, Runes, Mandragora and the new Glt cross poisons, which of some are buffs used directly by your party members forcing them to completely re-buff?

Has this skill been updated to be used against enemy players?

- Divest:

SC_STRIPWEAPON, SC_STRIPSHIELD, SC_STRIPARMOR, SC_STRIPHELM, SC__STRIPACCESSORY

- Chemical Protection:

SC_CP_WEAPON, SC_CP_SHIELD, SC_CP_ARMOR, SC_CP_HELM

- Masquerades:

SC__ENERVATION, SC__GROOMY, SC__IGNORANCE, SC__LAZINESS, SC__UNLUCKY, SC__WEAKNESS

- Soul Link:

if((dstsd && (dstsd->class_&MAPID_UPPERMASK) == MAPID_SOUL_LINKER) || rnd()%100 >= 30 + 10 * skilllv)
{
if (sd)
clif_skill_fail(sd,skillid,USESKILL_FAIL_LEVEL,0);
break;
}

- About Rogue Spirit & Madogears from Sage's Dispell skill:

if((dstsd && (dstsd->class_&MAPID_UPPERMASK) == MAPID_SOUL_LINKER)
|| (tsc && tsc->data[SC_SPIRIT] && tsc->data[SC_SPIRIT]->val2 == SL_ROGUE) //Rogue's spirit defends against dispel.
|| rnd()%100 >= 50+10*skilllv
|| ( tsc && tsc->option&OPTION_MADOGEAR ) )//Mado Gear is immune to dispell according to bug report 49 [Ind]

- About casting Clearance/Dispell on self:

if (sd)
clif_skill_fail(sd,skillid,USESKILL_FAIL_LEVEL,0);
break;

-Clearance on enemy:
I don't find any code about that.

So basically what it does is when your party members are debuffed by enemies, you Dispell your partymembers completely, also taking away their own used buffs?

From what I learn, debuff means "taking away any existing buff" (it can be positive/negative buff).
So when I think of 'monster debuff' it means "a monster's skill that can clear a buff", it's not "a monster's skill that cause negative buff on you/party member". But I might be wrong too hehe..

Aren't this skill suppose to work on enemy? What I heard from WarpPortal forum their AB build is to Clearance at enemy to remove their Angeling card effect too. (Forget the source, please search)
