Notes

• This ability is not a single target attack like the in-game tooltip might describe. It has a small 1 m (3 ft) radius area of effect and it can hit every target inside the AoE with a separate attack roll. This includes allies but not the elemental itself.
• There is no Saving Throw to avoid being knocked prone by this attack. If it hits, the target will get knocked prone (unless it is immune).
