I am thinking about playing a multiclassed Undying Warlock in a Strahd campaign. A couple things questions about the Among the Dead (text at bottom). Both of these questions have to do with an undead being immune if you "target it with an attack or harmful spell".
First there is nothing in here about your allies fighting it or you fighting its allies. So if I am surrounded by undead and I am attacking one of them, and my allies are attacking them. All of them except the one I personally am attacking would need to save to attack me correct?
Second if I throw an AOE like a fireball or something that would not "target" any of the undead so they would still need to save to attack or target me.
Am I reading this correct?
Among the Dead: Additionally, undead have difficulty harming you. If an undead targets you directly with an attack or a harmful spell, that creature must make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC (an undead needn't make the save when it includes you in an area effect, such as the explosion of Fireball). On a failed save, the creature must choose a new target or forfeit targeting someone instead of you, potentially wasting the attack or spell. On a successful save, the creature is immune to this effect for 24 hours. An undead is also immune to this effect for 24 hours if you target it with an attack or a harmful spell.
