Skill	Duration	Damage
Invasive Arrow	25 sec	+25%
Crippling Arrow	50 sec	+25%

A foe struck with such an arrow has its effective defence reduced - so that subsequent hits do more damage.
- Only "giant" creatures seems to be affected, such as Chimera, Cyclops, Dragons, and also Death.
- This skill has no effect on lesser creatures including Ox, Saurians, and Giant Undead.
- This skill also seems to improve Stagger and Knockdown by around +20%, on such giant creatures.
Only boosts damage, and so isn't useful to Defense Break creatures with high defense.
The part of the body struck is the only part affected - thus a cyclops hit with such an arrow in the left leg will not take extra damage on the right.
Multiple arrows to the same body part do not seem to magnify the effect.
This skill does not improve Debilitation accumulation rates.
