-'''Manifold Assault''' is a level 7 [[Translocations]] spell which allows you to attack multiple targets within line of sight with melee attacks. Each target is automatically hit by 1 attack from your weapon (or fist), with no [[auxiliary attack]]s. This spell is cast in the same amount of time as your weapon's [[attack delay]].

If you are using [[Unarmed Combat]], the number of targets is halved. All hostile monsters that are in LOS have an equal chance to be targeted.

 Manifold Assault is unable to [[stab]] opponents, while [[cleaving]] and [[reaching]] have no effect.

-*This spell takes a lot of investment to cast. It's not really feasible for heavy armour characters in a 3-5 rune game. [[Talisman]] users are perhaps the best users despite the halved targets.
+*This spell takes a lot of investment to cast. It's not really feasible for heavy armour characters in a 3-5 rune game. [[Talisman]] users are perhaps the best users, despite the halved targets if using Unarmed.
-*Manifold Assault thrives when paired with high damage melee attacks, like two-handed weapons and [[transformations]] like [[Storm Form]]. The [[dark maul]] is especially brutal.
+*Manifold Assault is more MP-efficient when dealing more damage per swing, so two-handed weapons and certain transformations like [[Statue Form]] and [[Storm Form]] are relatively more effective. The [[dark maul]] is especially brutal.
