Seal abilities are short term self-buffs that compose one half of the baseline Paladin combat system.

General Information

A Seal is a self-buff which temporarily boosts the Paladin's power for two minutes. The system of interactions between the various Seals and Judgements compose the main bulk of the Paladin class' combat system.

Seals cause an additional effect to occur on successful melee attacks. These effects vary greatly, from returning mana or health to causing high amounts of Holy damage. In addition all seals have an "unleash" effect that is activated through using a Judgement ability. By unleashing a seal the paladin can deal large amount Holy damage instantly done to the target (the exact amount and effect depending on the active seal) as well as cause additional effects based on the Judgement.

All seals last for 2 minutes and are treated as a magic-type dispelable buff.
