Sentinel focus

Sentinel focus is a measure of the degree to which
a sentinel has captured their opponent's attention
during a fight.

Focus is obtained by successfully completing skills
that draw a target's attention. These skills are:
FLAGELLISTICS, PLINK, MAZZATELLO, and ABBACINARE.

Once gained, focus is expended (in a similar fashion
to ep or sp usage for skills or spells) in order to
use the skills DISRUPT ARMOR and DISTRACT. Note that
the use of focus does not eliminate the ep cost for
a skill.

Multiple sentinels can obtain and use a target's focus
during the same combat-one sentinel's usage of focus is
independent of any other sentinel's efforts.

A sentinel can use the sentfocus command (HELP SKILL
CHECK FOCUS, HELP SENTFOCUS) to determine the amount
of focus, if any, they have on their target. Focus is
maintained by a target until it is used up by skills
or the target dies.
