__TOC__
'''Disintegrate''' is a core [[warding]] attack spell which causes portions of a target's body to melt away.
 
Under normal circumstances, the spell inflicts two [[damage cycle]]s upon the target. If the target is [[stunned]], or if the target is [[non-corporeal]] [[undead]], a third damage cycle will take place. 

Additionally, casting this spell upon an item will cause it to be destroyed.

{{Usage-channel-evoke|s=705|2=Disintegrate [[Bolt]] (requires 20 ranks of [[Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy]])}}

==Lore Benefits==
Training in [[Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy]] provides three benefits:
===Bolt Version===
As mentioned above, 20 ranks of Necromancy Lore unlocks the ability for Disintegrate to be cast as a [[bolt]] spell, which is cast using {{boldmono|PREP 705}}, {{boldmono|[[EVOKE]] {target}}}.

===Opponent Effectiveness Reduction===
Necromancy Lore provides the ability for both the regular and bolt aspects of the spell to temporarily weaken weapons, shields, and armor for 60 seconds when the target is struck. The percent chance is based upon a seed 6 [[summation]] of the caster's Necromancy ranks.  One of three effects may occur:

:#Weapons having 25% less [[damage factor]];
:#Shields reducing the target's [[block]] chance by 5% and cause it to suffer -20 to offense with [[shield maneuvers]]; and 
:#[[Armor Use|Armor]] is reduced by 1 Armor Group. 

The effect(s) stacks and the duration renews each time the lore benefit triggers.  The target must be struck on the right hand or arm for the weapon effect, and on the left hand or arm for the shield effect.  Any other location hit will trigger the armor effect.

|}

===Damage Factor Bonus===
Training in [[Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy]] increases the bolt version only [[Damage factor|damage factor]] (DF).

|'''Necromancy<br>Lore Ranks'''||'''<center>Damage Factor<br>Increase</center>'''
|-
|<center>1 to 50</center>||0.001 per rank
|-
|<center>51 to 100</center>||0.001 per two ranks
|-
|<center>101 to 200</center>||0.001 per four ranks
|}
The total DF increase with 200 ranks Necromancy lore is 0.100.

==Channel Damage==
Channeling provides additional damage by boosting the effective [[warding margin]] of a spell. Thus a channeled spell with bonuses of 25 and a warding roll of 101 would do the same damage as a cast spell with a warding roll of 126. Stance gives a bonus of 4 at guarded and 20 at offensive. Disintegrate is a special cast that only takes stance into account, and not the open hand factor.  This bonus is added on top of any other applicable warding margin bonuses, such as an incapacitated target (+15 for most spells), or the charge-up effect of Fervent Reproach.  This applies to both warding and bolt versions of the spell.
