<section begin=description /><noinclude>'''Elemental Strike''' is a</noinclude><includeonly>A</includeonly> [[warding]]-based spell that inflicts a burst of [[elemental]] energy upon the target, causing immediate [[health point]] damage followed by a [[critical]] of a particular element.<section end=description />

This spell also applies [[Staggered]] using the [[standard negative duration formula]].

One who is [[attunement|attuned]] to a particular element will produce an Elemental Strike of the selected element. If the caster is not attuned to any element, a random element out of the five will be chosen each time the spell is cast.

==Lore Benefit==
Training in [[Elemental Lore, Fire]] provides a chance to trigger a 2nd elemental strike on a random opponent in the room for an additional cost of 5 mana. The additional strike '''will not''' hit the original target. The additional strike will only strike creatures and will never occur if a player casts this spell at another player or if the additional 5 mana is not available.
