Warlock Invisibility

Unread post by Veknironth »

Well, I didn't realize that the Air Warlock spell was so different from the Wizard version. First, it requires concentration, unlike the the wizard spell. Second, it allows for an area. It states, "renders...Everyone/everything in a six foot diameter invisible". So, is that a sphere? Does that mean that if it's six feet tall, it's only six feet wide three feet above the ground? Or if it's six feet on the ground, it's only three feet tall? That seems useless. Also, it states that "any complicated task" can cause the warlock to lose concentration. What's a compliated task?

1st...what it says for the range is "Self or 6 foot (1.8 m) area."

Generally speaking when something says XX foot area in means a square. Where when it says XX foot radius it means ether an upright cylinder or a sphere.

But in this case the Descriptive Text answers both of your questions.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.
