Mindshatter Smite

2nd level Evocation

Mindshatter Smite

Mindshatter Smite imbues your weapon with an aura of disruptive psychic energy. When you next strike a creature with a melee weapon attack while this spell is active, the weapon unleashes a burst of psychic force, dealing an extra 2d6 psychic damage to the target. Furthermore, the target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, it is disoriented and has disadvantage on the next attack roll it makes before the end of its next turn as it recoils from the mental assault.

Mindshatter Smite harnesses the paladin’s divine wrath into a weaponized form of mental anguish, showcasing a profound mastery over the battlefield that not only harms foes physically but also cripples their ability to fight back effectively, embodying a higher form of spiritual warfare.

When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the psychic damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 2nd.
