Far Strike (4e Ritual)
Far Strike[edit]
You lay this ritual upon a melee weapon, giving it the ability to strike at a greater than normal distance.
| Level: | 7 | Component Cost: | Up to 10,000 gp |
|---|---|---|---|
| Category: | Creation | Market Price: | 520 gp |
| Time: | 10 minutes | Key Skill: | Arcana |
| Duration: | Up to 24 hours |
This ritual allows you to enchant a single weapon, whether or not it is already enchanted, so that its wielder may use it against targets who are outside of normal melee range. The weapon effectively gains a version of the reach trait, allowing the wielder to make attacks with a range of “Melee weapon” at a distance. The first time a wielder attempts to use this special reach ability, the wielder must spend a healing surge.
The performer of this ritual may choose to accept a lower Arcana result than rolled. Doing so will decrease the component cost and the weapon's reach, but will keep the higher roll's duration.
