By far the best part of this skill is it doesn't affect the weapon itself. If I go to fight a creature highly resistant to magic with a dark enchantment on my cursed bite (gold forged) it will die, but slowly. If I go at the same creature with abyssal anguish instead of a dark enchantment, I deal my full physical damage PLUS any magical damage gained from the skill. Works really well in conjunction with a pure physical weapon like cursed bite or Dragon's Dogma because like I said, it doesn't affect your weapon's actual damage output, only adds to it. Also if you or your pawn enchanted the weapon beforehand the damage is still only added, therefore you can deal holy AND dark damage to an enemy with a holy enchanted weapon, temporary or otherwise. That extra damage makes to MK the strongest, or at least most reliable hard hitter by far, even more so than warriors as their skills can be interrupted.

One thing though, if you enchant your own weapons, use this skill before using the enchanting skill, the long cast time takes away the valuable seconds that could be used to shred any living thing. :P.
