Notes[]
- Damage is also applied each round to targets in the affected area (not just upon entering the area).
- Damage from this spell is capped at 20d6. Caster levels above 20 will increase the duration of this spell, but not the damage.
- This spell is often used by caster type clerics as a finishing blow as damage is dealt with the initial cast on the target.
- A useful tactic in PvM is laying down many overlapping blade barriers, then luring monsters across them.
Previous versions[]
