 The exact mechanics vary by spell:
 *'''Searing Ray''': Channeling will recast the spell, dealing the same damage but costing 1 MP per channel. Can be channeled 3 times per original cast.
-*'''Flame Wave''': Channeling will recast the spell, dealing the same damage, increasing the spell's radius by 1, but costing 1 MP per channel. Can be channeled 3 times per original cast, or 4 times with [[Vehumet]]'s range boost.

 *'''Launch Clockwork Bee''' Channeling the spell is used as a timer; once the channeling ends, the clockwork bee is created. Requires an original cast + 3 turns of channeling.
 *'''Maxwell's Capacitive Coupling''': Channeling the spell is used as a timer; once the channeling ends, the instant kill occurs. Requires a [[spellpower]]-dependent channeling time.

-After casting a channeling spell, it can be channeled by [[wait]]ing. Depending on the exact spell, channeling can cause the spell to cast again or progress the spell's timer. Channeling does count as waiting for the purposes of the [[acrobat]] property.

-Searing Ray and Flame Wave cost the normal amount of MP for their initial cast, then 1 additional MP for every turn channeled. Searing Ray can be channeled up to three times, and Flame Wave, two (or three with [[Vehumet]]'s range increase). Channeling does not decrease damage or any other statistic of the spell.
+After casting a channeling spell, it can be channeled by [[wait]]ing. Depending on the exact spell, channeling can cause the spell to cast again or progress the spell's timer. Channeling does count as waiting for the purposes of the [[acrobat]] property.
-Maxwell's Capacitive Coupling instead uses channeling as a timer; after 3-7 turns waiting, it'll activate and instantly kill the closest enemy. It doesn't use any MP past the initial cast.
+The exact mechanics vary by spell:
-The [[amulet of the acrobat]] works with all channeled spells, as you are considered waiting (even if you are dealing damage).
+Being moved by any effect (an [[elephant]]'s trampling attack, the [[Primal Wave]] spell, an unintentional [[blink]], etc.) ends the channel, as does [[Silence]]. [[Paralysis]], [[confusion]], [[sleep]], and full [[petrification]] will pause channeling.
