The wait state determines how many rounds of combat lag you get on you
have to endure before being able to use the next command.
IE: WAIT_STATE(PULSE_VIOLENCE * 2)
Would not let you use any commands for the next 2 rounds of combat, you'd
still be fighting, but commands like kick, bash, cast 'spell' etc.
wouldn't be executed until the waitstate is over.
Hope this clearifies it.
