This is undoubtably been debated before, I think my brain is just checking out for holidays early... :twirl:

The scenario is: you cast a manaball at a target you can see inside a room. Another person you can also see is inside the Radius (your magic attribute), but outside the room. Would they still get hit with the manaball?

IN other words, I am correct in that it will effect all those you can see reguardless of where the spell originates? It's not a "mana explosion from a point" like a grenade, but more of a "instant down-pour" of harsh mana?

Thanks.
