The Paladin calls upon the divine power of her patron to decimate her foe. When successfully cast, the target is surrounded by a damaging sacred force, and may additionally be forced to kneel. Divine Strike also forces the target into Roundtime (RT).

The base chance of success for this spell is 50%, and further modified by Spiritual Lore, Religion as identified below for an up to 100% chance of success.

Lore Benefits

Training in Spiritual Lore, Religion increases the overall chance of forcing the target to kneel by 2% per rank, with a maximum bonus of 50% gained at 25 ranks.

Messaging

Flavor messages for Divine Strike are based on the paladin's patron deity selected with the CONVERT verb. Flavor messages can be seen at Deity Messaging.

Default messaging for an unaligned paladin:

Caster view:
    A pillar of grey luminescence manifests around (target).
    Waves of sacred energy tear through (target)'s body!

Target view:
    (Paladin)'s eyes glow with silvery grey light, and then everything around you shimmers to match the argentine color.
