Skill Rules & Full Description
This skill works the same way as the Waylay skill with three exceptions. First, Master Waylay is delivered subtly so the character only needs to call the attack loud enough for the target to hear it. The character being attacked may be in combat but the character using this skill cannot be in combat. Finally, the character should prefix their damage with “Master Waylay.”
