Ability information#
| Property | Value |

| Availability | Available on current weapon types |
Requirements#
- Requires the equipped weapon’s assigned primary/secondary slot, normally 70/90 base weapon skill and (unless overridden below) 70/90 base Tactics. Use Best Weapon Skill can satisfy the weapon threshold with base Swords, Macing or Fencing.
Effects#
- Creates a ten-second target effect with spell-damage and mana-cost penalty fields both initialized to 15. A second hit doubles both fields once to 30 without resetting the timer.

Weapon assignments#
| Weapon | Ability slot | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Elven Spellblade | Primary | Current source assignment |
| Magical Shortbow | Secondary | Current source assignment |
Notes#
- The audited source has no consumer for ManaCostMalus beyond the buff text, and no regular Spell.cs consumer for SpellDamageMalus. Do not read the displayed penalties as verified increases to ordinary spell mana costs or reductions to every spell.
- Base mana is reduced by the shared ability skill-total discount and Lower Mana Cost rules; a second paid ability within the three-second cooldown costs double.
