If it blocks my view and I can see a shadow where the archer is then I can hit it with missile fire at no penalty (or maybe at light concealment penalty).If there is an foe on the other side of the area of darkness, with no objects in the darkness between us, do I have any penalty to shoot them? In other words, is it advantageous for me to cast darkness halfway between my character and a foe, if the foe is out of range of darkness?PC.....DARKNESS.....FoeAs an aside, I played another game where the darkness spell had no effect on those outside the area of effect. To those outside, the darkness could not be seen at all and had no effect on seeing into or past the area affected. In fact, those outside had no way of knowing darkness had even been cast. In that game, casting darkness on enemy archers was an extremely effective tactic.</blockquote>
