I wasn't able to select this special ability more than once - either with the assassin or the Kensai thief that I tried.

It lasts way too short a time to be generally useful, but when it works, boy it works. With a dagger, my assassin got 2 attacks per round. Added a spare one in her other hand, plus Montolio's cloak to gain a third strike. 7 times 3 hits = 21 times normal damage. Wow... Usually I'd backstab the original way, and then use the special ability when the enemy faced me.

Alchemy is just as useful- potions of invisibility are reliable ways to backstab, and alchemy gives you unlimited ones.
