What it does

Throw an axe from the pack that skips like a stone on water: 1.9x the thrown roll on the first foe, then it hops to the nearest other foe within 4 tiles it can see (foe-only, never one it struck) for 1.3x, and once more for 1.0x: 4.2x over 3 foes. Each hit cuts 1 gash and adds stagger 8, and is a fresh HitSpec. 16 tiles/s; it lodges in the last foe it strikes (the Flight rule); a hop that finds no foe drops it where it is.

Edge: Third Skip

A fourth hop at 0.8x (+19 %).
