In-game description

One of the night sorceries of Sellia, Town of Sorcery.

What it hits with

HitMagicStancePer cast
Ambush Shard14631

Base damage per hit from the game's attack table (AtkParam_Pc), before your staff's scaling and the target's defenses; stance is the poise damage of the hit. "Per cast" is how many of that projectile one cast fires; how many of them reach one target depends on its size and distance, so no total per cast is given. Hit names are the community's labels for the param rows.
