Item: Mageslayer
This roughly forged +1 striking scimitar is a favorite instrument of battlefield operatives seeking to weaken an enemy's forces by strategically eliminating their magical support. A mageslayer deals an additional 1d6 spirit damage to any creature it Strikes that's capable of casting spells from the arcane tradition. When wearing or wielding a mageslayer, you gain resistance 5 to damage from spells from the arcane tradition.

The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.
Sword: The target is made off-balance by your attack, becoming off-guard until the start of your next turn.
