A “critical hit” that deals extra damage and can produce different effects.

Specifics

Only humans (including NPCs) can stunt.

The extra damage from Stunt is based on weapon tier. Transformed limbs are treated as tier 3 weapons for this formula.

Stunt damage and effects for interfusion attacks are calculated based on the equipped weapon (or tier 3 if both arms are transformed).

In addition to extra damage, elemental and some artifact weapons (such as Halehammer) will produce further effects. (See Elemental Stunts below.)

Stunt activate after warrior Broadswipes but before Knockback effects. Hence, stunt effect area range is based on the initial position of the attacked target.

If an attack will hit multiple targets simultaneously (e.g. Through Shot or Splinterblast), the attacker's chance to stunt on each target is calculated by the following formula: finalStuntChance = stuntChance * (2 / (numTargets + 1))

Elemental Stunts

Elemental effects can be acquired by capturing an elemenatal spirit, or may be on certain weapons when you acquire them.

Fire

Sends up to 3 fireballs at nearby enemies, which can start blazes. Each fireball deals 1 + weaponTier magic damage, 1 pierce.

Leaf

Grants 2 temporary health to the attacker.

Stone

Shreds 1 armor and pins all enemies within a 2-tile radius.

Water

Gives +1 action point, at most once per turn.

Shadow

Gives Shadowed Status: The next incoming attack will miss, you have +2 speed, and you can move through scenery. Shadowed status is removed when you make an attack.
