Culling is better suited to swarms of souls, while Strike will be more effective against wraiths. Note that in order to use Cull, Strike, and Expel, you will require a soul cleaver.

This effect may be stacked up to three times, with the entire process being consumed upon a successful skewer. However should they recover their soul in full or a period of time elapses since the first application, then the effect will fade. The amount of bleeding caused is based upon the amount of soul missing upon the time of application, with the application that had the most amount of soul missing taking priority.

Distortion
Syntax:	SOUL DISTORT <target>
Description:	Target soul: Below 90% Soul restored: 6% Distort their soul, causing your next hammer attack to strip their rebounding and bypass their parry. This will last for a limited time or until it is consumed upon attack. Note that this effect is exclusive from the effects of the Frailty skill, both cannot be used at the same time. There is a short cooldown upon its use before you may use it again. This ability can be performed off-balance, but consumes equilibrium.

Implant
Syntax:	SOUL IMPLANT <target> <venom to give> <trigger venom>, SOUL IMPLANT <target> CLEAR
Description:	Target soul: Below 75% Soul restored: 15% This ability allows you to place a silent disease in your opponent's soul tuned to a specific venom. When that venom enters the blood stream, the disease will flare up, coming to life, and releasing an extra venom and a small amount of poison damage upon your opponent. This will last for 45 seconds, increasing to 60 seconds if your target is below 50% soul when cast. This effect is then consumed once it is triggered, and the ability will enter a state of cooldown for a short period of time. This ability may be performed off-balance, but consumes equilibrium.

Reave
Syntax:	SOUL REAVE <target>
Description:	With a warhammer or polearm in hand, you can reave the very soul of an opponent in one fell blow. You may not, however, perform any actions while attempting to do so.
