Media[edit | edit source]
The base version of this skill deals a punch, a shoulder butt, and a side kick that have considerably longer range, via a wave of force like spray of power, than normal attacks.
The Piercing Trident effect changes the hits to three punches, decreases the range of the third hit, but creates a much wider fan-shaped area of effect. Everything in the range of the skill is damaged, making this useful against large groups of enemies.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
Prior to the skill rune revision in November 2011, this effect was enabled by the Indigo Rune.
