If the target is successfully struck by Harmony, the Bard may first [[Types_of_Movement#Forced_Movement|Slide]] the target 1 square as forced movement.  As with all forced movement, this ignores difficult terrain, never provokes attacks of opportunity, and may be negated if the target elects to fall [[Prone]].  In addition to the slide, Harmony inflicts 1d6 + CHA modifier of piercing damage at level 1, and this damage increases by 1d6 at each odd level, as detailed in [[#Table:_Bard|Table: Bard]].

Staccato can also be used to damage unattended objects such as windows, etc.  This means it can be used to deal damage to mindless creatures, or the Bard may elect to instead make a CMB-based [[Combat_Maneuvers#Sunder|Sunder check]] against a worn, wielded or unattended object in range, instead of a creature.  This check is resolved in all ways as a normal Sunder check, following the rules thereof.
