-------------------------------------------------------------------- Skill : Clamp Class : Aurumvorax Cost : 20 (non-adjustable) / 10 sps per drag Skill Type : Active Casting time : 0 rounds Stats Base : Mostly Strength, Some Dexterity Difficulty : Level 0 Syntax : do clamp [<target>] Examples : do clamp socar : do clamp (to let go) The powerful jaws of the Aurumvorax are renowned for their gripping strength. With this skill, the beast clamps its jaws down tightly on its target, and attempts to stay clenching that target. While being clamped, the Aurumvorax will drag the target as it moves. Furthermore, a target being dragged will take damage as they helplessly smash into any surroundings. Certain terrains are logically more damaging than others. A clamped victim will find they receive significantly fewer attacks, and will find their concentration disrupted if the Aurumvorax drags them away before they finish using a skill / spell / song / prayer / etc. Of course, doing this greatly taxes the beast. Thus, every few movements it will need to rest temporarily to regain its pulling power. A rampaging Aurumvorax will often be able to drag its prey farther than usual. Flying, floating, and riding targets are pulled to the ground when clamped by an Aurumvorax. -------------------------------------------------------------------- See also: help skills rampage
