Horn of Blasting broken?

Well, obviously, I would take Power Word, Stun, since a spell such as Power Word, Horn of Blasting is quite impossible due to the fact that it's more than just one power-word. ;)

I am glad you brought that up.

Horn of Blasting is a single word in the True Speech, the language of all words of Power. Not surprisingly, it is also a single word in Ancient Sindarin. It has been passed directly down to us, surviving in the present as a colorful vernacular phrase that would be well familiar to an Iconic Pimp, but I dare not mention out loud for the sake of Eric's grandmother.

Actually, that's a common misconception. The phrase Horn of Blasting is a actually a single but hyphenated word, with it's original source stemming from the ancient language of the Ssakcaj Em'etib tribe, which was originally resident of the northern frozen wastelands in Pangea. However, recent studies have concluded that the phrase Horn of Blasting was simply their way of saying Stay The Hell Away From The Beans!!!, but that is largely conjecture and the study group is not a reputable one by a longshot.
