Okay, let me see here...


Prismatic Lance, Master of the 7th Veil Attack 11
"Nice sword, but I like my lance. Both of then"
Encounter ✦ Arcane, Implement, Veil; Force
Standard Action Range 10
Target: One to two enemies in range Attack Intelligence vs Reflex
Special: The wizard may target each enemy with to one or more lances (all effects stack), you can apply one different veil to each lance if possible.
Hit: 2d6 + Intelligence modifier damage and the target is pushed one square.
Veil: If you applied any veil to this power you still push the target one square for each lance you hit him.

How many veils can you fire? Is it two lances period, shooting two at one target, or one at both targets if you have two targets? Is it shooting two lances per target, for four lances against two targets?

Warding has a lot of options, which is really strong, since the more options something has the more likely you'll find a good way to use it.

Again, how many actual attacks are you limited to? Seven attacks split as you choose among up to seven targets? One attack per target on seven targets? Seven attacks on each target for up to 49 lances if you target seven enemies?

Tried to be more precise with the wording and cut down the warding burst effect.

The 11 attack you create 2 lances and can hit one enemy with two lances or two enemies with one lance. The 20 attack you can hit one enemy with 7 lances, or one with 2 and it 1 lances against 5 other enemies or any kind of combination.

You may wish to word them as close as possible to the Ranger's Twin Strike as possible (cutting out the melee bits of course)
