'''Wave of Force''' is a [[Wizard skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|Level]] 4, creating a force wave from the Wizard, repelling enemies and projectiles.
<br><br><br>__TOC__
==Background==
The [[Wizard]] uses pure Arcane force to push objects, projectiles and enemies alike away from her. The force is primary pushing targets rather than hurting them.
==Skill Effects==
The following is a very quick list. See the [[Wave of Force rune effects]] page for a more thorough summary of rune effects, or any of the individual rune pages for numbers, screenshots, blue quotes, and much more.

It's hard to know how many scenarios in a fast-paced game like this where you could really benefit from using Slow Time and then Wave of Force to repel projectiles -- Out of the 8 projectiles in the above screenshot, only one or two actually came back to strike their targets. It will be interesting to see what practical uses there are for this spell as more gameplay videos unfold.
