Geochemantics is a skillchoice specialization after learning Elementalism and is an alternative to Geomancy. It was developed from the teachings of Victor von'Lochli, who came from a dark, far future timeline. Geochemancers develop chemantic reagents that can be used to create fumes that surround them as well as produce powerful chemantic reactions. The Geochemancer modifies his body by implanting various metallic devices and machinery in order to increase his power and effectiveness in combat.

The metal storm requires ferrous and chemical fumes to be expelled, and the reaction will climax shortly after being released. The metal storm will cause damage to any enemies within range of it as the shards of metal created in the reaction of the caustic fumes rip through them.

It will cause additional damage and stun based on the number of these afflictions its target has: asthma, pox, sensitivity, rigormortis, or paranoia.

Additional Notes:
Base damage increased to 300 + random 300 + 20% of maximum target health. Each affliction increases damage by 10% of maximum target health (Changelog #2840)


Contamination

Syntax
FUMES EXPEL CONTAMINATION
Power: 5 (Megalith of Doom)

Tank fumes: 10 ferrous, 10 chemical, 10 toxic, 10 taint

Expel all four fumes from your iron tanks in a sudden exhaust to form the contamination. The contamination works to negate protections from asphyxiation damage as the thick, greasy cloud cannot be stopped. Those who attempt to control their breathing to avoid asphyxiation will find the necessary large breath to be extremely painful. Finally, any asphyxiation damage will also produce bleeding and contagion as the contamination fumes seep into the lungs and rupture alveoli. The effects of the contamination will weaken over time and will fade away completely after a Lusternian day.
