| Animates some rock walls adjacent to the target — including the target itself, if it is a rock wall — to create some earth elementals. |
Awaken Earth is a monster-only spell that turns some nearby rock walls into earth elementals. The elementals count as summons and are worth no experience, but the walls are permanently removed. This can quickly turn a defensive chokepoint into a death trap, as even once you've dealt with the elementals or their creator, other dangerous creatures have new ways to reach you.
Like Dig, Awaken Earth can be used outside the player's LOS. However, monsters generally won't cast it unless they know your location (if it saw you before, if you get marked, or if you make a noise).
