Question on Glancing Blow

Glancing Blow (after a charge power) is capable of hitting a hidden unit adjacent to the unit that charged, knocking that unit out of being Hidden. Is this effect intentional?

* anyone else with questions about the mechanics of P101's combat system, please feel free to post them here.

Absolutely intentional.

It's not an aimed attack-- think of it as either another frenzied swing, or powerful follow-through.

im more sure if its intentional or not. a hidden player cant be targeted directly, but an attack that happens to hit them will. glancing blow attacks a random enemy around you so maybe its not a direct attack
