**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened**  
When using Dirty Blade or Poison Spirit, I expect that no purple gems should be generated. The enemy is wearing Night Mask which makes purple gems when they take Dark or Light damage. Neither spell is Dark/Light and I don’t believe my character is doing Dark/Light damage.

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
This seems to happen any time I am facing an enemy wearing a Night Mask in PVP. Just noticed for the first time on February 16, 2025.

**Steps to make it happen again**  
Use Dirty Blade or Poison Spirit against an enemy wearing Night Mask. Could happen when using other types of spells that aren’t Dark/Light, but I have not tested.

Just for the record, this DOES happen when dealing damage with other types of spells (Fire specifically) as I’m now seeing more people using this in PVP.
