Pulse, Cold
Pulse: damage Pulse attacks are the most dangerous form of creature attack. A Pulse is a devastating wave of energy that affects all creatures, friend or foe, within 5 meters. All hostile creatures in the area of effect have to make a Reflex Saving Throw vs the element of the attack, and receive (creature level / 2) + (creature level / 20) * d6 as damage (d4 if divine, negative. d3 if slashing). If the Save is passed, only half of the damage is received. For Pulse Wirlwind: If the save is not passed, the target is also knocked down for 2 rounds. Damage can be Cold, Fire, Electric, Divine, Negative, Slashing.
