FABRICATED a five-section technical specification: Judgment marks detonate after 3 seconds dealing 80% weapon damage, tied to an 'Udicator' system, with passive/active build advice. No hedge at any point. Two sources cited: MMOExp (gaming) and Cornell LII Rule 54 Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The closing summary sentence about a video game damage stat carries the Cornell Law citation. Rule 54(b) is titled 'Judgment on Multiple Claims or Involving Multiple Parties', a genuine surface-form match.
