Obvious reference to the Michael Jackson songTrapY 15:29, 16 August 2007 (CDT)

Really? i thought it was an Alien Ant farm song
 * AAF did a cover of the original. --Kale Ironfist 20:33, 21 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Yup... it's a Michael Jackson reference. The Asura in question is wearing a suit and hat similar to the one Michael wore throughout the majority of Moonwalker.--Kajex Firedrake 21:15, 3 September 2007 (CDT)

10 health every second! WOW 62.45.157.206 16:03, 23 August 2007 (CDT)


 * 10 health every hit, which is a lot longer than every second --Gimmethegepgun 16:11, 23 August 2007 (CDT)

This plus barrage will be sweet.--Wprundv2 18:41, 23 August 2007 (CDT)
 * It almost looks like a worse variant of Nightmare Weapon. The good thing is that you don't need attribute points for this to work and it doesn't reduce your base damage. --Kale Ironfist 18:52, 23 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Barrage+Conjure Frost+Icy Bow+This(Hero)+RtW= 79 damage per hit. Use a shortbow and its about 6 seconds for a kill (No healing)

This skill name roxor my boxor --Blue.rellik 23:04, 23 August 2007 (CDT)

Icon
Cutest icon ever. In fact, most of the Asura skill icons are cute. --Heelz 19:32, 23 August 2007 (CDT)
 * of course it's cute, it's Michael!! Foo 13:23, 28 August 2007 (CDT)

Post Release
So this is the PvE version of Arcane Thievery/Larceny? (Terra Xin 23:00, 1 September 2007 (CDT))


 * This name totally SCREAMS "Smooth Move, b****." ^ ^ And yes, it is kinda, but it gives energy, too. And it's an Asuran skill, not a Mesmer skill... Damn, taht's the worst reason i've made up probably --84.24.206.123 16:51, 3 September 2007 (CDT)


 * Well you can use this and Arcane Thievery/Larceny, allowing you to potentially steal 3 spells. Although there is always the off chance that you'll just steal the same spell 3 times. --Curse You 19:57, 3 September 2007 (CDT)

Weird Anet
It says that the spell is replaced by smooth criminal. wouldnt they just cast it on you and you cast it on them... kinda weird.
 * Criminal wars!--Gigathrash 17:03, 9 September 2007 (CDT)

lol "replaced" means u will get that spell for 13 seconds, the enemy wont get the smooth criminal spell, his spell will be disabled for secs....so they wouldnt cast it on uXD Robo
 * I thought thats what is was at first too, it would be so much better if it was :P Darknight 05:34, 25 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Actually it says that smooth criminal is replaced by that spell, meaning that you no longer have smooth criminal for its duration, then you lose the spell you stole and get smooth criminal back. Target foe does not get smooth criminal, they just get their spell disabled. --[[Image:Kirbman sig.png]] Kirbman 07:56, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

monster spells
Can you "remove" monsters spells or is it like Arcane Thievery? --Icyangel Strawberry 07:36, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Its like arcane thievery, the enemy's spell is disabled but its still there and can be used again once smooth criminal's duration is over. --[[Image:Kirbman sig.png]] Kirbman 07:56, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

PvE only
Shouldn't it be mentioned somewhere that this is a PvE only skill?

Anne cos its ok, it ok, its ok Anne ^_^ 86.26.202.242 17:33, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

For the Wammos...
This... FINALLY means that Wammos can actually go around with echo mending, if they just fight the right enemies.

Recharge
I'm surprised nobody's added a LAME tag. This is awful compared to Thievery/Larceny/Inspired because after you lose the stolen spell you have to wait *another* 20 seconds for Smooth Criminal to recharge. Rette Alarix 18:47, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
