I know you need to see someone to target them with a direct combat spell like manabolt or power bolt. My question has to do with mana spells and full body armor. Lets say someone is in a full security body suit like Master Chief from Halo where you can't see anything of their actual body. Now power bolt should work just fine, but would a mana spell like manabolt work since you can't see their actual body?
