Force Pulse

Focus 1

Area 5-foot emanation

The barely-controlled magic you command surges outward, battering your surroundings. Each creature in the emanation takes 1d4+1 force damage.
If you have an overwhelming barrage aura when you cast this spell, the spell's area increases to a 10-foot emanation.

Heightened (+2) The damage increases by 1d4+1.

Reined Chaos

Feat 4

Prerequisites force pulse focus spell, overwhelming barrage hybrid study

The raw arcane magic that swirls about you is dangerous, but by throwing yourself into it recklessly, you've learned how to direct it. Your overwhelming barrage aura increases to a 10-foot emanation, and you can decide which creatures in the emanation are affected. Additionally, when you cast force pulse, you can choose which creatures in the emanation are affected.

Bombarding Spellstrike

Feat 10

Prerequisites Arcane Cascade, overwhelming barrage hybrid study
Requirements You're in Arcane Cascade stance, have an overwhelming barrage aura, and your Spellstrike is charged.

The barely-restrained magic swirling around you coalesces into shards that bombard your enemies as you weave martial and magical prowess. Make a Spellstrike. If it hits, each creature other than the target of your Spellstrike within your overwhelming barrage aura takes 2d4+2 force damage with a basic Reflex save against your spell DC. This damage increases to 3d4+3 at 14th level and 4d4+4 at 18th level.

Special If you have the Reined Chaos feat, you can choose which creatures in the emanation are targeted.

Overwhelming Pulse

Feat 16

Prerequisites force pulse focus spell, overwhelming barrage hybrid study
Frequency once per day

When you release raw arcane power, you can do so in waves that push those overwhelmed by the power backwards. When you cast force pulse, you can choose to cast the spell as a 2-action or 3-action activity, and it gains the following additional effects based on the number of actions spent.
A second pulse follows the first. The area of the emanation expands to a 10-foot emanation, or a 15-foot emanation if you have an overwhelming barrage aura, for this second pulse, and you deal damage to creatures in the emanation again as the 1-action version of the spell. Each creature that takes damage from this second pulse must make a Reflex save against your spell DC. On a failure, they are pushed 5 feet away from you.
As the 2-action version of the spell, and a third pulse follows the second. The area of the emanation increases to a 15-foot emanation, or a 20-foot emanation if you have an overwhelming barrage aura, for this third pulse. Each creature that takes damage from this third pulse must make a Reflex save against your spell DC. On a failure, they are pushed 5 feet away from you, or 10 feet on a critical failure.
