It is unfortunate language. Read literally, one could interpret the spell to inflict the appropriate damage or effect to any creature trying to attack the caster. In other words an archer trying to shoot the caster would take 20 fire damage even if he didn't cross the wall. Isn't that the...

Liquidsabre, You can cast many spells without line of sight as long as you have line of effect. For example I can cast a fireball at an orc hidden by a globe of darkness. But I agree that a prismatic wall blocks attacks originating from either side. I'd just like stronger language making that...
