Medusa head how does it petrify exactely?

After removing magic armor, how does it work exactely ?

There's a small AoE around you, think like the blinding radiance spell from Aero. There's also an activated new spell it gives you that has a large radius that petrifies for a turn.

You will petrify everyone around you who doesn't have magic armor. It has an aura effect, enemies will also get instantly petrified if they move close to the user if they don't have magic armor.

You activate the skill, which will put the head on you instantly, rather than you clicking on it twice, so you need to be sure that that is what you want to do when clicking it.

Once you have the head buff active, you will radiate a small aura of Petrification. This effects only enemies, in a range that is, I believe, just as large as Blinding Radiance. This effects only enemies with exactly 0 Magic Armor.

The petrification from this buff lasts for 0 turns. This means that when it becomes an enemie's turn, they will un-petrify, only to be petrified once more if the conditions of both them having 0 Magic Armor, and them still being in the radius of your active buff are met.

This will also give you a new skill that you may use, for as long as the Medusa Head buff is active. This costs 2 AP to cast, and effects a large radius. This skill will do Earth damage (which effects Magic Armor) and petrify any enemies that, after damage, have 0 Magic Armor, for 2 turns. I apologize, as I am not 100% sure how this skill's damage is scaled. It may be from any of: Polymorph, Intelligence, or Geomancer. I would be surprised, though not shocked, if it scaled with Strength.

I hope that makes sense :)
Feel free to hit me up with any other questions. Have a great day!

Medusa Head does scale with STR.

Perfect, thank you. From the wiki:

"Damage is based on your level and receives bonus from Strength." - Petrifying Visage.
