* Up against enemy crowds, the Inquisitor can use this to "mow" through his enemies, effectively giving him the ability to kill numerous foes in one attack.

* As with his other core weapon attack, [[Sacred 2:Callous Execution|Callous Execution]], this combat art also has an inherently low regeneration time.

* If the Inquisitor needs to get away from the enemy crowd he is facing, he can use this to slow them down and thus give him some time to back away from them and recuperate.

** Also, the speed reduction is cumulative and it applies even if you do not actually do damage to the enemy. With a ranged weapon, Deprivation mod and reasonably low regen time you can quickly reduce enemy movement speed to a crawl.
