Stone Shaping

Trained by raising stone: walls and pillars, shaped from the ground ahead of you.

Stone Shape

Discovered byReading the Tome of Stone Shaping (Raise Wall now, Raise Pillar at level 3), which Sister Elowen in Brightwater's square sells. Deraku also shows you the Barricade at Thalorion's south gate during the siege.

Trained byEvery wall, pillar or barricade you raise.

Abilities

Ability	From level	Costs	Does
Raise Wall Stone rises from the ground ahead of you: a wall three paces wide and head high, standing five minutes. Creatures and players must go round it.	1	20 mana, 10 s cooldown
Raise Barricade Deraku's form: a barricade of stone, chest high and four paces wide, dragged up across a way. Standing five minutes. Learned from him at the south gate.	1	15 mana, 12 s cooldown
Sentinel Stone Provos's form: a stone that stands up and keeps watch. A pillar rises ahead of you for a minute, and for twelve seconds every foe within four metres of its foot walks 30% slower.	1	20 mana, 20 s cooldown	Slow 30 for 2 s
Raise Pillar A pillar of stone, raised on the ground ahead of you, standing five minutes.	3	15 mana, 8 s cooldown
Mountain's Patience The Earthwarden's patience: stand still for six seconds and every hit on you lands three fifths lighter; hold it to the end and the ground answers -- thirty Stone damage, more with your Stone Shaping, to every foe within six metres. A step, or anything else you do, ends it with no tremor. Once a minute.	30	30 mana, 60 s cooldown
