Title: Mass Disorientation Spell
Post by: Black Cat on May 17, 2009, 09:48:04 AM

Description:Oma took the Mass Disorientation Spell.

The description says... something in the line of "All Non-Allied creatures of most racial types must...."

As I understand it, the spell should affect all foes, but not those in Party.

Well... it does not only affect everyone, but the caster too.

Verifiable/Reproducable: yes, Oma got stunned/dazed when casting the spell too close. The "Test Dummy" resisted the spell, but otherwise she would have been affected too.

It would be nice if there was some list of what spells are friendly to party members.  The way the descriptions are written is not always clear.  Is there one?

No, but typically it either says "all creatures/targets" or "hostile/enemy" or something like that.  "All" means everyone....hostiles, friendlies, innocent by-standers...everyone.  "Hostile/enemy" should exclude party members and other non-hostile NPCs.

Should not affect non-hostile creatures in the next update.
