Banshee Special Information

Scream

If you do not have earmuffs on the banshee will use her scream attack. Her scream attack is a fast attack that causes you to cower in fear binding you in place for a second and lowers your attack strength ranged and magic stats by 20%, along with your defense, summoning, and agility by 10%, 10% of your constitution level is also removed from your lifepoints. The attack has 100% accuracy and hits for full damage each hit.

Restore rate
