Description
Once this spell was only available to druids, but it leaked to many clerical faiths during the defense of Hedrad in the Divine War. The spell's energy is released when the caster strikes the ground with his fist or bludgeoning weapon. The force of the blow is transmitted along the ground to a nearby foe, with a chance of knocking him prone.

Spell Effect
Upon completing the spell, the caster makes a ranged touch attack roll against a target within range. If the attack hits, then the target must make a Reflex save to avoid being knocked prone. The force of a shockwave cannot drop or climb a vertial surface. Range is calculated in a straight line along the ground, so it can be shortened by uneven terrain.
