Sean Waters Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Re: Change Environment vs Images (light only) Yes' date=' I'd say it would need a liberal interpretation, but for a different reason. According to the power build, only those [i']in[/i] the cone AoE should be able to see things that are in the cone with them, and therefore illuminated. The problem is that if you are standing outside the area lit up by a flashlight, you still get the benefit of seeing what is illuminated by the flashlight... Add a limitation: visible sfx. Or maybe have a side effect (images: create light) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I summon a guy, a loyal guy, holding an OAF lantern. As one of his tasks, he hands me his lantern before he disappears from whence he came. The side effect, if it triggers, is I just summon the lantern three feet in the air, it breaks and sets my robe on fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
