Are you trying to derail my thread sir? Post specifics about what you want fixed in a game mechanics thread with clear evidence such as I have done above.

I'll take the initiative on this one...

Affects all monsters in a small radius around you.

To answer the previous poster, it's a radius AE, meaning the targets must be close to you for them to be hit. The nice part about this is that you can hit unlimited targets with these types of spells, they simply need to be near you.

This spell enables the Wizard to damage all mobs within a radius of up to a huge 35 feet for 854 damage, without damaging themselves.

This point blank area effect spell will damage all targets within 25 feet of the caster for up to 648 damage.

Personal Area: Stun All Targets (8 Secs)

If there is evidence out there... ANYWHERE... that specifically states that an AE spell in Everquest has a 25 mob maximum, I would love to see it. Until then, not classic.

This is correct, but this change has been made to game balance p99 since AoE was abused.

I've read it. I posted not realizing I was replying to a Nilbog post made back in 2010. GG
