Effect Item Dialog

The Effect Item Form consists of:

  • Casting Type and Delivery are determined by the parent object's settings. These restrict the type of Magic Effect you can select.
  • Effect: The Effect Item's Magic Effect.
  • Magnitude: When applicable, the 'strength' of the effect.
  • Area: When applicable, the radius of the effect in feet.
  • Duration: When applicable, the duration of the effect. Duration is never applied to Constant Effects.
    • Based on these values and the properties of the Magic Effect, the other values in this section will be automatically calculated.
  • Conditions: The effect will only function if these conditions are true. Note that excessive conditions can cause performance issues.

Notes

  • Conditions are usually checked every second of gameplay. However, concentration spells only appear to check their effects' conditions once, when the spell is first cast.
