Searing Ray is a level 2 Conjurations spell which fires penetrating beams of energy over multiple turns.
Conjurers start with this spell in their libraries.
Useful Info
Searing Ray is a channeling spell. Once fired, the caster gains a Ray status. For 3 turns, every turn waited (with s or .) will fire another searing ray, which costs only 1 MP. Thus a "full cast" is 5 MP. Channeled rays will target the monster you targeted; if the target is invalid, or if you aimed at the ground (with f .), it will travel across the last beam path.
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.
