The new Bard spellsong, Stunning Shout (1008) has been released!

---

1008 Stunning Shout

Duration: Immediate; not renewable

Type: Attack

The bard focuses the power of their shout into a physical blow that strikes their target with great force. In addition to the damage caused, the target may be knocked down, stunned, or disoriented for a period of time.

The song is an instantaneous attack, not added to the song maintenance list and not renewable. Primary damage caused is based on the warding roll and increased slightly by training in Elemental Lore, Air. The secondary critical is based on bard vs. target level and the warding roll, and may be either an impact or unbalance critical. Tertiary effect is either a stun or a disorient effect. Stun duration is not stackable with other stuns (but the greater duration of the two stuns will apply). Disorientation varies in severity based on the warding roll, but will always result in at least some round time for the target, plus possible other ill effects.

Mana Point (MP) cost is 8 per cast.
