Vibration Chant allows a Bard to direct his or her voice at an object that a player character or creature in order to attempt to vibrate the item out of the wielder's hand. A warding check is made to see if the item is dropped, and on a high enough successful endroll the item explodes, injuring the wielder in the process.

This spellsong can be very useful in disabling creatures by getting rid of their weapons and/or shields for a very small mana cost.

Note: It is not possible to blow up enchanted weapons.
