<p>Updated mono to boldmono.</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{boldmono|CHANNEL}}ing a [[bolt spell]] imposes a 3 second hard roundtime in exchange for a higher chance of hitting a vital area and subjects the attack to less [[critical randomization]]. The critical randomization floor is raised by 1-2 ranks (depending on the actual [[critical]]) and the chance to hit every location is the same at 7.7%. <br /> <br /> When a bolt is {{boldmono|CAST}}/{{boldmono|EVOKE}}d without {{boldmono|CHANNEL}}ing, it has a little over 16% chance to hit the eyes, head, or neck. A {{boldmono|CHANNEL}}ed bolt has over a 30% chance. Most of those locations will also result in a critical kill for ranks as low as 5 or 6, while it will take 7+ against the chest, abdomen, or back. If it is determined to be a rank 9 critical wound, critical randomization can lower that all the way down to a rank 5 (typically non-lethal against vital spots). If the same bolt is {{boldmono|CHANNEL}}ed for the same rank 9 critical wound, crit randomization will not lower it less than a rank 7 (typically lethal against vital spots).<br /> <br /> The roundtime imposed by channeling cannot be reduced by haste effects.&lt;noinclude&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Category: Spell Templates]]&lt;/noinclude&gt;</div>
