Litany of Proper Death Guide

  • Golden Order Incantation
  • Stamina Cost: 28
  • Deals Holy Damage and 5 stance damage
  • Deals a meager amount of Holy damage in a particularly wide and far-reaching AoE, with a fairly quick cast speed.
  • Litany of Proper Death is a very situational spell, mainly intended to be used against enemies that are extremely susceptible to Holy damage. Its damage is otherwise meager against unintended foes, and one might consider the intelligence requirement too high a price for a spell that's rarely useful.
  • Could otherwise prove useful for finishing off targets in PvP due to its very wide AoE, or possibly harassing them with stagger if they have minimal poise.
  • The Area of Effect only affects the ground height in which the player casts the spell. Any significant changes in altitude will make the spell have no effect on the enemies.
  • This spell can in fact be blocked, despite the ground effect suggesting otherwise.
  • Deals +900% damage to undead icon 40px Undead type enemies and prevents Skeletons from reviving. Despite this, it appears to not deal extra damage to Tibia Mariners.
