[edit] Usage
Works well with indestructable weapons, since they can't take durability damage. This attack will do huge amounts of damage at higher ranks, but will take chucks out of your weapon if you use it often on a destructable weapon. Could work nicely with Steel Pillar as that weapon is Indestructable, and has the highest damage of all spears. An Amazon with Steel Pillar using a level 25 Impale, could hit upwards for 7000 damage with no ill effect to the weapon, 14000 if the Amazon has Critical Strike. Impale will reduce attack speed by a huge degree, and that during the attack time, which can be over a second, the attack can be interrupted.
[edit] History
Although deftness and superior hand-eye coordination are the hallmarks of the Amazon warrior, they are also well known for the ferocity of their attacks. An experienced warrior is able to focus her fury and deliver blows so powerful that they have been known to shatter their weapon in the process.
