This spell conjures ancient verses of battle within your mind and makes you recite them — quite loudly! Each non-summoned enemy you slay in combat during this recitation temporarily enhances your melee skills. Your effectiveness will only be enhanced for the duration of the song; casting this spell while already singing will start a new song, not extend an existing one.

Song of Slaying is a level 2 Charms spell which gives you a slaying bonus on all melee attacks for its duration. This bonus increases for every enemy you kill, maxing out once it reaches a certain limit. Unfortunately, to maintain the spell your character must sing, generating significant noise. Also, most kills by allies do not count toward the slay count (those killed by Spectral Weapon are the notable exception), and summoned monsters provide no bonus whatsoever.

The song of slaying bonus depends on the threat level of the monsters you kill:

  • Killing trivial monsters cannot increase the slaying bonus beyond +1,+1.
  • Killing easy monsters cannot increase the slaying bonus beyond +3,+3.
  • Killing though monsters cannot increase the slaying bonus beyond +5,+5.
  • Killing nasty monsters always increases the slaying bonus.
