Name
raise hackles — while wearing a lance or pike, gain a short, huge boost to attack-speed
Synopsis
raise hackles
Description
The raising of hackles is infrequent but awesome, as any parent to many disobedient children can tell you. Parenting whirlwinds may come in the form of cleaning, discipline or flight, but channeling those short bursts of violent energy while in combat can be similarly fear-inspiring. When a cavalier is using one of their recommended weapons and raises their hackles, they will receive a boost only a minute or two in duration, but which permits them to attack twice or thrice as many times as normal, per combat round. Due to the short duration, it is critical to time the raising properly, to make full use of the minutes.
