Notes
- A more common use for this is to cast it on a group of enemies, so they all fight each other instead of you. Odds are you'll be left with just one last severely weakened enemy standing, which you can then mop up on your own.
- A particularly effective tactic is to use Mayhem when entering a dungeon. Due to Mayhem's large impact radius, it can effectively turn the area into a free-for-all kill zone, as enemies slaughter each other.
