Shock

Fable Wiki – Your guide to everything Fable.

Shock is a spell from Fable II. The untargeted 'Surround' version calls down pillars of lightning, hitting any enemy caught in the casting radius, to a maximum of eight. The targeted version of the spell is reminiscent of 'Lightning', a Fable and Fable: The Lost Chapters spell, which blasts a single opponent with a bolt of electricity. One difference is that you cannot sustain the bolt, as you could in the first Fable.

[edit] Description

Damage your enemies with a blast of electric energy. Shock also stuns the unfortunate recipients. One of the most powerful crowd control abilities, a surround Shock leaves enemies spasming and unable to attack, setting them up perfectly for finishing moves.

Level	Cost	Targeted Damage	Surround Damage	Duration	Max Targets

2	2,700	150	100	1.5 seconds	4
3	16,200	600	400	2.0 seconds	5

[edit] Notes

• Performing shock also stuns those affected every second or so.
• Shock is the most powerful area spell, and the second most powerful target spell, the first being Blades.
• While shock is the most powerful spell, it has several drawbacks compared to Inferno. It can only attack eight targets at max, and there are many enemies that are immune to the spell. It also does not do damage all at once, but over time, allowing high level enemies the chance to attack you. Charging up to level 5 Shock also takes a bit more time than some other spells.
