Personally I think some sort of bonus would be in order, but that's up to your DM. In addition to the benefits you mentioned, some have suggested there should be no save, but that's something I would do some experimentation with. Try out the different options in combat and see what seems most reasonable in your campaign.Concieveably the ogre in your example could provide cover, but that would seem to be something a "Screw the Players" DM would do. I don't believe that cone effects are blocked for targets behind another within the cone.Personally, unless there was substantially more flexibility/usefulness to the ability, I would just swap it out for something else.</blockquote>
