Evil Eye Hex from ACG

[Kalima]

I noticed the text of the Evil Eye hex changed in the Advanced Class Guide. Is it no longer mind-affecting? That sentence is omitted.

Original Evil Eye Hex from Advanced Players Guide for the Witch wrote:

Evil Eye (Su): The witch can cause doubt to creep into the mind of a foe within 30 feet that she can see. The target takes a –2 penalty on one of the following (witch’s choice): AC, ability checks, attack rolls, saving throws, or skill checks. This hex lasts for a number of rounds equal to 3 + the witch’s Intelligence modifier. A Will save reduces this to just 1 round. This is a mind-affecting effect. At 8th level the penalty increases to –4.

Even trying to play devil's advocate and suggesting maybe it is intended, the first sentence says:

Good catch, though.

Removed an unhelpful post.

I'm guessing they grabbed an older version of the evil eye hex. The mind effecting line was added after the witch beta.

Or it was done that way for a reason. Because shaman can not take a witch hex of the same name. They wanted to give shaman a little bit extra in the hex department.
