Powers
Bone Smasher
This melee attack can be slow, but it compensates by dealing a good amount of damage and having a good chance to Disorient the target. If used against a Disoriented foe, there is a small chance to enter Energy Focus mode. This power will weaken the target's secondary effects if used while in Energy Focus mode.

Power Up
Boosts the damage and secondary effects of your powers. Your powers' effects like Heals, Defense Buffs, Endurance Drains, Disorients, Holds, Immobilizes, Knockbacks and more, are all improved. The effects of Power Up last a short while, and only the next couple of attacks will be boosted.
This power improves the strength of your Heals, Endurance drains and gifts, Runspeed powers, Flight powers, Defense buffs and debuffs, and ToHit buffs and debuffs, as well as the duration of your Sleep, Hold, Disorient, Immobilize, Fear, and Confuse status effects. It does not increase the strength of your Knockback effects. That part of the power description is outdated.
