Ability Hurl Rock
Type:	Shale (Rock Mastery tree)
Effect type:	Activated
Range:	Medium
Activation:	27
Cooldown:	20s
Description:	Shale pulls a rock from the ground and hurls it to a target. All creatures near the point of impact take physical damage and are knocked down unless they pass a physical resistance check. Friendly fire possible. After Shale has learned this talent, party members who are nearby whenever Shale has Rock Mastery active receive additional bonuses to ranged critical chance and range attack speed.

Hurl Rock is Shale's talent from the Rock Mastery tree in Dragon Age: Origins.

Information Edit

• Shale pulls a rock from the ground and hurls it to a target, dealing 70*(1 + 0.01*[strength-10]) physical damage in a 5m radius sphere.
• Creatures in AoE are knocked down unless they pass a physical resistance check vs. Shale's strength.
• Friendly fire possible.
• Range: 25m.
• Conjuration time: 2s.

Notes Edit

• Activation base is in stamina and values vary with fatigue%.
• A very useful crowd control tool. Deals decent damage, too. Friendly fire-capable, so precise aiming is a must.
• Hurl Rock damage is affected by Shale's strength only. Somewhat surprisingly, dexterity does not affect this talent at all.

Bugs Edit

• The in-game description is wrong about Hurl Rock further increasing ranged critical chance and reducing the aim speed for party members.
