Key Words Exalted / Elemental
Description For the duration of this spell, the target gains 4 armour hits, which protect even against attacks that would normally bypass armour.
  • Attacks with the damage indicators Crush, Through, Wounding or Smite, whether mundane or Elemental, inflict one armour hit to the location struck.
  • The call Elemental Bolt inflicts just one armour hit to every location.
  • Attacks with the damage types Corporeal, Spirit or Artefact function as normal.
  • Attacks with the damage indicators Blast and Fatal function as normal.

In addition, for the duration of the effect, the subject is immune to offensive lesser elemental calls, such as Strike Down or Repel (but not to mundane versions of those calls), and to the knock down effects of the call Elemental Bolt.

The hits granted by this spell are in addition to any worn armour, and the above rules apply to both the additional armour hits and the armour’s own hits for the duration of the spell. The additional armour hits are lost before the armour’s own hits, and cannot be repaired. If the armour is of at least superior quality, the duration of this spell is increased to 2 minutes.
