Firestorm is a battle spell used by magicians in Betrayal at Krondor. It is used to attack all enemies within the caster's line of sight.
Overview
For a cost of 1-30 Health/Stamina, the caster can shoot a ball of magic at each enemy within his line of sight, pushing them backward and dealing damage equal to four times the spell's cost.
No additional items are needed to cast Firestorm, but it will not affect targets who are not in the caster's line of sight, and its accuracy depends on the caster's Accy: Casting Skill. As a ranged attack, it cannot pass between active electric crystals in a magical trap.
While no enemies are immune to Firestorm, some differ in the amount of damage inflicted on them. Grandsire Wyverns take double damage; Trolls and Panath Tiandn take 50% extra damage; and Dreads, Spellweavers, and the game's final antagonist take half damage.[1]
Acquisition
Firestorm can be obtained from the body of a defeated Witch Hag in the northeast of the Green Heart. In Version 1.02, it is also available in a trapped chest in the lower levels of the Sethanon Caverns.
Trivia
