Name

detect weakness — divine the best method of damaging an opponent at a given moment

Synopsis

cast 'detect weakness' [<victim>]

Description

Divination is usually the domain of clerics and those close to their deities. Occasionally, a pious fighter may gain the insights from their god relating to their area of expertise.

Being in the position knowing more than you should is not always a common occurrence for who trade in brute force, and so in addition to being able to their enemy in a particular moment of weakness, they have the benefit of intimidation. The damage that would normally be dealt by an attack that has benefited from knowledge of the target's can be increased significantly by the difference between the caster and the victim's personality.
