Notes
- Does impact and fire damage.
- This spell is affected by the weather.
- With fireballs described as "large" and above (18 mana or greater), a concussive blast accompanies a hit. This blast can hit both players and other creatures that are at melee with the target. Similarly, if the creature is at pole (or missile) range to the caster, other creatures and players at pole (or missile) range to the caster are also at risk. Ethereal Shield protects from this.
- The concussive blast is a TM contest.
- Fireball ignites Naphtha, but not the concussive blast.
- Compatible with the Pattern Hues cantrip, though it cannot alter the color of the flame itself.
