Lore Concept

The fallen learned this one from the Cavern Brutes, by being on the wrong end of it.

The Brutes were Velmarch's deep miners once, and they still swing as miners swing: overhead, both arms, at the ground. See Cavern Brute.

How it works

Smashes a circle of radius 2.6 centred 2.2 tiles in front of you. Every enemy in the circle takes the same damage roll. It swings at 75% of your weapon's speed but hits for 150% of its damage.
