Smokescreen and Damage Reflect

Hi shads, quick question
Will I take damage when I attack a monster with Damage Reflect while I stand in SS?
and a somewhat related but useless question, will the damage I take while attacking a Damage Reflect'd mob be hit back with Dark Flare?

i'd test myself, but only damage reflectors i know are rog and mu gong, and i can't get to either

[quote=j0s3a4d]Status, such as Dispel, Stun, Seduce, etc can go through Smokescreen. BUT, if that skill that normally gives you that status has a Damage attached to it, then the Damage won't be dealed. As in when Pap does his stunning attack, you will get stunned but the damage that normally goes in-par with his stun isn't dealt to you.
1/1 is not an status but an attack (takes off HP) and therefore it can't affect you through Smoke.
Damage Reflect CAN go through Smokescreen, and it's the only HP-dealing skill that can go through smokescreen, IIRC.
Dark Flare doesn't reflect Damage Reflect. Not that it matters much because you will most likely die if you attack while the monster is in Damage Reflect which makes Dark Flare disappear anyway.[/quote]

thank you for the explanations
and yeah, that's why my second question was kind of useless xD

To answer your question: Yes.
You will take damage if the monster has damage reflect on.
And if you have Dark Flare up, you will reflect the damage you take.

Yeah that stun move goes through SS, Empress Cygnus' transformation (into pig) goes through SS [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EviG0wxWwBE&feature=plcp&context=C35473baUDOEgsToPDskKP_zf_8zEGIAmrNkfPfd6W]Seen at 1:17[/url], I'm pretty sure Seduce goes through SS

ah, thank you :l
also noticed while doing pap in dojo that his stuns hit through SS
which attacks and hits go through SS? i don't think pap's 1/1's got through SS, tho, or maybe i just didn't get 1/1'd...

You will die in SS.
I do not know if it will be reflected back though with DF.
