Spell effects on the caster
-
I was under the impression that a caster isnt effected by their own spells. Like not getting caught in their own web spell. Can someone please clarify this.
-
Untrue cast a fireball next to yourself and you will get burned web will hold you in place etc…
Only spells that list targets as except caster or hostile only won't effect you. -
I wish i knew that before i died in my own web spell hehe I cast it to stop the elite bandits and I got stuck then beat to death
-
If it makes you feel better I have confused my toon this way… I was ridiculed

All CoA areas besides the Fugue is Full PVP. This means all your AOE spells will affect everyone. Including neutral people, enemies, your party buddies and even you. So be careful when using aoe-spells like these or you'll end up with a dead and angry party real soon.

Well there's a pile of gold and a few good items i had just out there for the taking I gave up when i hit level 1 again hehe

You should check the new death system.
You don't have to hit level 1 again in such situations. It's pretty new though. Still under tests and subject to change.

Very few area effect spells that -do not- effect your PC. Most will. Actually only one that doesn't hit you that I can recall is Firestorm, but the rest will. So be careful playing a spellcaster! Will hit allies too

Hammer of the gods only effects hostiles, Flame strike will only do half. This is the reason you don't see fireball happy mages on CoA.

Clearly you have never seen wabz as a mage… <.<
Call Lightning hits everyone around besides the caster as far as I know, despite saying "All enemies in the area". Won't allies be dazed by HoG? -

No it's hostile only.
Basicly you can throw fireballs at your own feet but you need to play a clever wizard and protect yourself first minor glode that stops level 3 and down means you can hurl empowered fireballs (15d6) at yourself and take no damage it works realy well even better if your hasted first thats 30D6 to everything around you per round.
