Hand Drill
Event
After any damage you or your pet deal, if the hit removed the last of an enemy's Block, that enemy gets 2 Vulnerable. Exactly enough damage to zero the Block counts; hitting an enemy that had no Block does not. Orb damage counts because you are the dealer. Event relic from Trash Heap in Underdocks.

When to take Hand Drill
Take it when your deck throws many small hits: the first cracks an enemy's Block and the rest land at 150 percent. Strongest against Act 2 and 3 enemies that block heavily.
