This is not about realism (as no discussion about a magically spawned wall of fire ever should be) it's about gameplay.

The vote's close enough that I don't intend to change it. Like most of the magic system, I suspect we'll be leaving it busted.

well thats just ----ed up.

It already uses fire damage. But I can't make it train fire without making fundamental changes to how it functions that a lot of peeps don't seem to want.

see, people...you're just making things stay broken :|


anyways, i think people wouldn't be so against you simply separating the walls...

IE: have firewall use this new setup, and have an "Circle of fear" type thing, that puts a circle down and stuff runs from it.

this vote really should be redone... except make people read it before voting by making the poll options "Option 1" and "Option 2"

and perhaps you'd get better results than this one, as the first option in this one sounds as if its nerfing the hell out of something that most people dont find extremely useful anyways...

and be sure to mention that without this fix it will remain broken :|

People don't read.

People just don't want their spells nerfed. Tis why the magic system will always remain broken. (At least till Source)

well, the fear effect makes it nearly impossible to do damage with...and the damage is fooked up anyways - it does a ton more than it says it does (instead of the 18 it shows me, its doing like 100 twice a second)
