Changes from default version

Unlike the original skill, this transfigured version has less damage effectiveness, slower attack time, more cost, no added fire damage, and a higher damage penalty to projectiles. However, it now adds additional projectiles and significantly more damage to every 5th attack, and requires a two-handed melee weapon.
