Description

The target creature's bludgeoning (physical, common) or buffeting (physical, uncommon) weapon gains a +1 Arcane Bonus on attack and damage rolls, plus an additional +1 per 10 full character levels of the caster (dropping fractions; i.e. +2 at level 10, +3 at level 20, and +4 at level 30). A qualifying double weapon gains this bonus for both ends of the weapon.

In addition, the affected creature's weapon deals damage as if it were one size category larger (maximum size-large). These effects only occur when the weapon is wielded by the selected target of the spell. If they do not wield it, the weapon behaves as if unaffected by this spell.

This spell lays an arcane charge on its target(s). If the targets are something other than you or another creature (such as an object or area), the spell lays an arcane charge on you, the caster. Targets which already have an arcane charge present must choose which to keep if the new spell has the same charge type. Only one arcane charge can ever be present on a target at a time.
