Just wanted to know, what does 'Level 13+ 10d6 damage' mean?
The max the spell can damage is 60? -- Pstarky
I believe so (which seems kind of low for a level 9 spell, although the area of effect is colossal). Shouldnt it be
Level 10+ = 10d6 damage
as it maxes out at the 10th Druid Level.
Although maybe it can be rephrase a little better cause it seems a little random maybe? -- Chrominium
Looks like I was wrong (and my suspicions correct), the ingame description shows that the highest damage is 20d6 (120 damage) which seems more like it. In which case the spell maxes out at level 20. Do you think this needs testing? -- Chrominium
Ok, I got that information from the Grimorie. The Grimoire could be straight out wrong or one of the patchs since the Grimoire was realised change the max damage on the spell. I would say if the imgame description of the spell says it 20d6, then that would be correct. Your welcome to test it thou. :) -- Pstarky 09:06, 10 Oct 2005 (PDT)
You are right, it is 10d6. It must have gotten change with a patch as it used to be 20d6. It is ridulously low since Fire Storm (two levels below) can do twice as much damage at a lower level. The only advantage is that it doesnt harm the caster, nor does it allow a save by spell resistance. -- Chrominium
Yes its a shame its a low damage spell. :( Thanks for checking that out. -- Pstarky 12:00, 10 Oct 2005 (PDT)
And even worse, it hurts dominated animals so they will become hostile again.
Is there a reason the damage chart begins at caster level 5? The lowest caster level for a level 8 spell is 15, isn't it? --The Krit 09:55, 15 March 2007 (PDT)
- not only that, but isn't the spell actually a max of 20d6 according in-game description? Bromium 14:23, 15 March 2007 (PDT)
- No, the in-game description (English, 1.68) says the max is 10d6. (That is also the maximum according to the script.) Admitedly, it doesn't make much sense to cap the caster level below the minimum, but that's what we've got. --The Krit 16:16, 15 March 2007 (PDT)
- I've changed the article to account for the minimum caster level. If anyone has an explanation, please speak up. --The Krit 13:05, 6 April 2007 (PDT)
