In times of great trouble, a cleric can call down the Divine Wrath of their patron to inflict holy damage on their foes.
Each cast begins with a 12 second summoning period (build-up time), followed by three rounds of damage (with 6 seconds between rounds), as long as the cleric does not leave the room. The critical damage dealt increases with each wave. There is no cooldown between casts, but a cleric can only have one Divine Wrath active at a time. Training in Spiritual Lore, Summoning reduces the summoning period.
Divine Wrath behaves like an area of effect (AoE) spell, but is not a true AoE spell since it does not automatically affect everyone in the room not grouped to the caster; the spell is also inherently player-friendly. Training in Spiritual Mana Control increases the number of targets the spell can hit from a base of 2.
Using EVOKE to cast the spell will reduce the Divine Wrath to group-friendly and the number of base targets will increase to 5. Those converted to the same pantheon of the caster will also be safe from the spell, except if the spell is directly cast or evoked at such individuals.
Casting directly at another player character automatically makes the spell non-player friendly.
Leaving the room or using STOP 335 will end the spell prematurely.
Usage
- PREP 335 | CAST or INCANT 335 to cast this spell against against anything not grouped to the caster. For INCANT, a target must be visible in the room
- PREP 335 | EVOKE to cast complete the sentence (|e=)
- INCANT 335 OPEN to open cast this spell once using INCANT (when a target is not visible)
- INCANT 335 EVOKE to evoke this spell once using INCANT
- INCANT SET OPEN 335 to always open cast this spell using INCANT 335
- INCANT SET EVOKE 335 to always evoke this spell using INCANT 335. This is not recommended for open cast AoE attack spells
Mana Control Benefit
Training in Spiritual Mana Control (SMC) will increase the number of targets affected depending on which version of the spell is cast.
When open casting the spell, the maximum number of targets will be 2 + 1 per 75 skill bonus of SMC and the spell will be player-friendly.
When evoking the spell, the maximum number of targets will be 5 + 1 per 50 skill bonus of SMC and the spell will only be group friendly.
Spiritual Mana Control ranks 0 10 17 24 50 100 125 150 200 250 Total targets (cast) 2 3 4 5 6 Total targets (evoke) 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
- Skill bonus converted to ranks
Lore Benefits
Spiritual Lore, Summoning
Spiritual Lore, Summoning reduces the summoning period between the initial cast and first wave of damage. The base build up time is 12 seconds, and is reduced by 2 second at 20, 45, 75, 110, and 150 ranks ranks to a minimum of 2 seconds. There is no way to decrease the time between waves, only the time until the first wave hits.
Spiritual Lore, Summoning ranks 0 20 45 75 110 150 Summoning period (seconds) 12 10 8 6 4 2
Spiritual Lore, Religion
Spiritual Lore, Religion increases the critical damage by adding a direct modifier, based on a seed 6 summation, to the crit rank.
Spiritual Lore, Religion ranks 6 13 21 30 40 51 63 76 90 105 121 138 156 175 195 216 238 Crit rank modifier 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
Damage Formula
Divine Wrath (335) concussion damage formula:
Each strike inflicts concussion (hitpoint only) damage and critical damage. The formula for concussion damage is constant for all cycles. However, status effects, such as stunned, bind etc., will effectively increase damage by adding phantom endrolls. There is some variability with the number of endrolls added. Because the spell has a very low damage factor (0.200) the increased damage from status effects is minimal.
Within the reddish haze, the man brings his forging-hammer sharply down upon the anvil, producing a loud clang. CS: +211 - TD: +63 + CvA: +11 + d100: +51 == +210 Warding failed! ... and hits for 42 points of damage! ... 50 points of damage! Gaping hole punched through the hill troll's stomach! The hill troll is stunned!
Calculating the initial damage (target is free from any debilitating status effects).
- Damage factor: 0.200
- Endroll: 210
Initial (hitpoint only) damage: 42 -
- 20 base damage + trunc((210 - 100) × 0.200) = 42
Miscellaneous Notes
- Creatures not slain in a previous frame will be retargeted for the subsequent frames, but creatures killed free up a spot for a new target.
- Moving from the room terminates the spell. This incurs the delay as if zero targets were attacked.
- As this is a higher level spell, the deity alignment modifier that existed in Divine Wrath (319) was removed.
A few deities have updated messaging and/or critical damage types:
- Charl: has a random chance to trigger different messaging which uses impact criticals.
- Koar: has a random chance to utilize heat criticals instead of electricity. No change in the messaging.
- Ivas: slightly updated messaging and will always use crushing criticals.
- Aeia: will always use crushing criticals.
- Arachne: completely new messaging that utilizes puncture criticals.
