• On non-human enemies where the animation doesn't change, simply increases damage, but changed animation attacks may do even more damage than the flat boost should add.
• Critical attacks with dark damage is reduced against other players (but still functions normally for mobs.)

Hornet Ring does not function properly with dark damage against players

Hornet Ring actually reduces ends up reducing critical damage on Dark weapons. This behavior only comes up in PvP situations as it functions normally for mobs.
