Help: Blasphemous BrandName: Blasphemous Brand
Classes: Heretic
Position: Fighting
Syntax: brand <target>
Description:
Blasphemous Brand is a Heretic remort skill that sears a wicked mark
into a single target, corrupting body and resolve together.
The initial strike deals direct damage, but the true value of the
skill is the curse that follows. A branded victim becomes weaker,
less accurate, and easier to pressure as the mark burns deeper into
flesh, spirit, or metal.
This is a single-target Heretic control skill designed to weaken
enemies and prepare them for further punishment.
Usage:
Use brand <target>.
The skill lashes one enemy with a blasphemous mark and attempts to
leave them cursed after the hit lands.
Effects:
- Deals single-target Heretic skill damage.
- Applies a weakening debuff to the victim.
- Can reduce hitroll and damroll for a short duration.
- May weaken armor further on targets under Tormenting Visions.
- Uses dark curse-based combat messaging.
Costs:
- Costs 120 mana each use.
Restrictions:
- Heretic only.
- Requires the proper Heretic remort unlock.
- Requires a valid combat target.
- Requires at least 120 mana to activate.
Failure:
If the brand fails, the mark does not take hold and the curse does
not settle into the target.
Additional Information:
Blasphemous Brand is not your heaviest direct-damage technique.
Its strength comes from weakening a target so later Heretic attacks
hit harder and the victim struggles to fight back.
Use it early against dangerous targets, or after Tormenting Visions
to deepen control over the same enemy.
