Description	An instant, 7.5 m radius, long duration paralysis effect. Both the glyphs are consumed in the process. Friendly fire is possible. Since a Glyph of Paralysis is consumed by being touched, this spell combination is more reliable if the Glyph of Repulsion is cast first. Note that though the Glyph of Paralysis is consumed, it is still able to be a component while its effect is active - if the target resisted the effect, the glyph has to be cast again.

Information

Conditions/Spells: Glyph of Paralysis + Glyph of Repulsion

• Paralysis Explosion will cause all targets within 7.5 m to be paralyzed for 20 seconds*(target rank).

Notes

• Glyphs must be overlapping for combination to occur (or, if a creature is affected by the Glyph of Paralysis, the Glyph of Repulsion has to touch the paralyzed creature).
• There doesn't seem to be any resistance check that can save one from this effect, apart from direct magic resistance. Most boss-level creatures shrug off Glyphs of Paralysis, Glyphs of Repulsion, Paralysis or Mass Paralysis spells (due to high Physical/Mental Resistances) but very few have any respectable magic resistance or use any anti-magic spells, so they will most likely be trapped by the Paralysis Explosion.
• Note: The paralysis effect on boss level creatures lasts marginally shorter in comparison to the duration suffered by normal characters.
