'''{{Anchor|Dark Burst}} ([[SRD:Special Abilities Overview#Supernatural|Su]]):''' At 4th level, a Gate Knight learns how to take the power of his dark blow and put it into an explosive burst of negative energy. Once per day, he may use a Dark Blow and instead deal 2d4 6 points of negative energy damage per 1 hp lost which explodes outward and deals damage to all creatures within a 20 ft. radius burst, in addition to dealing the normal damage to the attack. All creatures caught in the area are entitled to a Will save for half damage, at a DC of 10 + 1/2 class level + [[Wis]] modifier. The Gate Knight is unaffected, but his target takes both the damage from dark blow and the damage from dark burst with no save. A Gate Knight can exclude a number of targets (such as allies) up to his/her [[Wisdom]] modifier if he/she so chooses. If the Gate Knight misses with this attack, the dark burst still goes off as normal. Every 4 levels after 4th, the Gate Knight may perform this an additional time per day.
