Flame Wave is a Level 4 Conjuration/Fire Magic spell. It deals fire damage to adjacent creatures, gaining the Wave status in the process. For every subsequent turn spent waiting (hitting '.' or tab), the wave fires again, growing in radius by one. It can be channeled twice, for a total cost of 6 MP. Vehumet will allow this spell to be channeled an additional time, hitting everything within 4 tiles from the caster.
Changing position by any method (whether by moving, blinking, teleporting, or being moved by monster attacks like trample or Primal Wave) will interrupt Flame Wave.
Fire Elementalists start with this spell in their library.
Strategy
- Don't get too greedy. While this spell is both damage-heavy and MP-efficent when dealing with adjacent enemies, keep in mind that they'll be striking you every time.
- An amulet of the acrobat will improve your EV while you channel the spell, which can help with survivability.
