# Shockwave

<div id="bkmrk-in-game-description-">![]()### In-Game Description

---

*Does not inflict damage, but unleashes a  
large shockwave, toppling opponents.  
  
Intended to stun opponents and make them  
vulnerable to attack. Some call this child's play,  
but for an innovative caster, it is a deadly tool.*

### Use

---

Fire a slow moving ball of magical energy towards your target which knocks them back and/or to the ground upon impact. Has a fairly slow cast time and only hits a single target with no splash effect.

### Availability

---

Sold by Carhillion of the Fold for 1,800 souls.

### Notes

---

- This is a very odd spell which is a bit misleading in its description. It sounds as though it will be an area effect attack but in fact it is just a single target spell. Although it is a bit impractical, it could have hilarious and possibly even useful applications in PvP and PvE like knocking opponents off of cliffs and the like.
- Using Shockwave against different enemies yields different results, using Shockwave against Hollow Infantry will knock them down into a animation in which they **CANNOT** take damage in, however, using Shockwave against an Enhanced Undead will cause it to fall over, but damage **IS** able to be dealt to the enemy while it is downed.
- While not damaging, this spell will take a substantial amount of stamina out of opponents who block it.
