Description

Empowered by your patron, excoriate your foe with searing power.

Mechanics

Available to Paladins of level 30 or above. Make a magical offensive maneuver that, if successful, will cause plasma damage and apply a -20% plasma resistance status effect to a single target. The effect is consumed by the next damage from plasma, Repentance (1615), or Judgment (1630) within 30 seconds.

After landing 5 Excoriates, your next Excoriate will have an increased damage factor and will affect 2 targets if present. If only 1 target is present, it will be struck twice. Additionally, the negative plasma resistance status effect is increased to -40%.

Excoriate has a 20% chance to grant the paladin Ardor of the Scourge for 30 seconds. Ardor of the Scourge is consumed by the next Weapon Technique: Assault and will empower the assault with +10 AS that stacks with each round, ignore the current assault cooldown, and incur no assault cooldown on use.

   A raw, red hole is drilled in the TARGET's chest by a powerful bolt!

Sixth excoriate

You level your WEAPON at a TARGET and call down the excoriating power of Kuon to smite him!
[SMR result: 192 (Open d100: 90, Bonus: 33)]
Galvanized, the call resounds, and the air grows leaden with the weight of divine censure!
A curtain of auroral light descends, roiling with incandescence and shot through with wavering tendrils of verdancy.

Caught within the numinous manifestation, a TARGET is dealt a scathing blow!
   ... 50 points of damage!
   Muscle and bone blasted to pieces by searing wave of energy!
   The TARGET is stunned!

Volatile, the manifestation pulses, searing the TARGET once again!
   ... 60 points of damage!
   Internal organs roasted instantly in an explosive flash of plasma!

Ardor of the Scourge

Auroral effulgence peels away and enfolds your WEAPON, sinking in and obtruding upon your spirit.

Your grip tightens as an ardor takes you, heightening the ferocity of your assault with every successive blow!
