- This bomb is ineffective against creatures resistant to Stunning.

- "Zerrikanian wizards have learned to harness the energy of hot desert storms and bind it into an arcane mixture. When detonated, the Samum releases this energy and stuns opponents with the ferocity of desert winds."
Upon detonation, this bomb stuns any creatures within range, provided they are not immune to this effect.

Notes[ | ]
- Samum (samiel, sameyel, samoon, simoun, simoom, simoon) is a strong, dry, dust-laden local wind that blows in the Sahara, Israel, Jordan, Syria, and the deserts of the Arabian Peninsula. There was also a top secret Polish intelligence operation which was called "Operacja Samum" (Operation Simoom).
