Sacred 2:Skeletal Fortification

Summons a stationary skeletal tower that will fire projectiles at opponents within a certain radius. Aspect - Astral Lord Modifications See also: Sacred 2:Combat Art Modifications Bronze Rapid Fire - Increases the skeletal tower's firing rate. (50% increase) Focus - Reduces the cooldown time for the skeletal tower. (Cooldown = 7.5s -.1s per 3 CA level) Silver Ice Shards - Adds ice damage. (40% from base physical damage) Arcane Power - Adds magic damage. (40% from base physical damage) Gold Scatter Shot - Adds another projectile to the skeletal tower. (The extra projectile will always fire if there is another monster nearby, so is the recommended mod.) Perforate - The arrows pierce through their targets and continue on their flight path. (100% chance to pierce, but slim chance there is another monster directly behind the first.) Skills And Attributes That Affect This Combat Art Astral Lord Lore Astral Lord Focus Concentration Ancient Magic Intelligence Stamina affects regeneration time only. Usage Strategies Casting this under a monster sometimes launches them high up into the air, but apparently only if it kills them on the first hit, which isn't helpful. Firing frequency increases by 0.1 seconds for every 50 levels of Skeletal Fortification. If enemy is static (not moving) placing Skeletal Fortification directly underneath certain enemies, like Dragons and Guardians, will enable SF to strike enemy twice. Works best when using Shadow Veil and no summons are present. Pros and Cons Pros Allows you to target enemies normally not accessible from your present location (i.e. across a river, over/under a bridge) ... Cons It is a 'line of sight' CA. Will only strike enemies if it has a clear, unobstructed path to it. (hills, rocks, trees, statues and other objects will block projectiles) With Scatter Shot mod, only one arrow will be fired if only one enemy is within range.
