Yeah it seems to activate more often than in World, I'll update the article after a bit more testing.
It doesn't seem the activation timer is dependant on skill level

what's the conditions?

it activates after 2:45 in combat at the latest BUT while you are attacking the 'time' speeds up so in practice it takes about 2 minutes. It is bugged (?) for dual blades and bowguns and you cannot speed up the timer. It lasts 2 minutes, then the 2:45 thing starts again.

Unlike in World, taking damage does not trigger it.

Thanks for notifying, cross referenced with Gaijinhunter's vid that came out earlier today to update the page.

I wish i had some accurate way to time myself to see if SB's CSS held attacks have any effect on the time-reduction because they've got probably the longest spammable animation chains IMO.

Tested, and unfortunately not, wailing on the training dummy both holding and not holding the CSS attacks has maybe a difference of 1 or 2 seconds. I kind of wish the prolonged animations from holding the attacks affected it, it'd be something to at least make CSS feel like it has somewhere to belong since every single other switch/wirebug attack for CB focuses on sword mode.

Can confirm that with testing in the training area-- Dual Blades can proc this with demon mode In 1:30-1:40 seconds while beating on the dummy.
It might've been bugged before but as of 3.0 it's fine now.
For clarification, I'm using the Felyne Tree's "Raging Claws" with the Hellion Mode ramp-up skill and Feral Modeswitch skill.
Tested it also with normal dual blades with normal demon mode, both works

250 Stamina Demon Mode Test
Without Marathon = 1:00 Demon Mode Duration
With Marathon Maxed = 2:00 Demon Mode Duration
With Marathon Maxed AND Latent Power Maxed (Active) = 3:00 Demon Mode Duration
During the 3 minute test, Latent Power obviously ran out once two minutes passed (as intended) but with the extra 1 minute after, this means that there's only a 1:45 window(further reduced if you actually are attacking, my test stood still) before LP comes back online LOL
So uh...I think it's safe to say that on a real hunt, you would be permanently in demon mode haha

does the effect apply only for the firt encounter or every time that the monster moves around the maps it can reset ?

It applies everytime you fight a monster. If you pass and it doesn't notice you, then the timer won't begin ticking down.

"when certain conditions are met"
Why are they so insistent in these dumb, vague descriptions?
