A Grimswarm giant ranger cocks his light crossbow and loads it with a plain wooden bolt.
A Grimswarm giant ranger fires a plain wooden bolt at you!
You easily block the missile with your eonake scaled greatshield!

Your eonake scaled greatshield pulses with a burst of plasma energy at the giant ranger!

... 10 points of damage!
Insignificant burns to the giant ranger's neck.

Your eonake scaled greatshield sprays with a burst of plasma energy at the giant ranger!

... 25 points of damage!
Flash burns to eye momentarily blind the giant ranger.
The giant ranger is stunned!
The wooden bolt breaks apart and crumbles away.
