Momentum Strike is a level 2 Conjurations/Translocations spell. It is a smite-targeted, range-4 spell that deals high damage for its level. Note that this spell can miss, unlike most smite-targeted spells.
But if the spell hits, then the caster is inflicted with the the -Move status effect for 5-8 turns. This prevents regular movement, physical player abilities like hopping, and casting this spell again. It does not prevent other types of Translocations from working.
If a status effect prevents you from moving, you cannot cast Momentum Strike. In addition to -Move, you cannot cast this spell if you are Stuck (from miscasting a Translocations spell) or if you are in Tree Form.
Reavers start with this spell in their libraries.
Strategy
Momentum Strike is essentially a spell with a lengthy cooldown (that prevents you from moving). It is best thought of as a support spell: cast this spell once or twice per encounter for some extra damage. In terms of raw damage, Momentum Strike is roughly equal to Stone Arrow, though it costs 2 MP rather than 3 MP.
Since this spell prevents you from moving for a few turns, it is best to position yourself before casting it. Try to be around hallways, and try to avoid other monsters from appearing. Stair dancing is helpful.
