Magicbane vs Spellcasting mosters

As my favourite sacrifice artifact, I have noticed that occasionally there is an additional special attck against spellcasting foes, along the lines of "You hit <monster>. You absorb magic energy!" with a small boost to Power. Where would the detail for this be found? It makes seeking out kobold shaman...s (shamen?) more worthwhile... -- Kalon 03:56, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

That's part of the cancel a.k.a. purge attack. You gain 1 Pw and 1 max Pw every time Magicbane successfully cancels a monster that has a magic attack. ContraDuck 10:53, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
