Message: <blockquote data-quote="Abraxas" data-source="post: 3252589" data-attributes="member: 1266">You are quite right that it doesn't say that the spell has to be useful - I just find it odd that it is included in so many write ups of casters who have almost no use for it - and find it doubly odd for those who cast as sorcerers and have a limits on spells known. Thats why I made the "I have been wondering how unbalancing it would be to change these radius emanations to emanations X distance from the squares the creature occupies." commentIf that was indeed what "You can leave and return to the globe without penalty." meant why was it not also present in the 3.0 version of the spell? (The description in 3.0 definitely works as you are interpreting the spell) Or better yet, just say you can leave and return. Perhaps it is because "with out penalty" means something other then being physically prevented from crossing (something the spell has never done). Given that it is magic, and we already have spells that can determine friend from foe or react to ongoing conditions I don't find it difficult to reason that spells have some sort of "magic time stamp" that GoI reacts to. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> 2b is a question looking for a yes no answer, not an answer  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> No need here - just looking for other arguements that actually support your position other than its weird and I don't like it  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> You don't get to eat your cake and have it to - you don't get "a 10 ft emanation is a 10 foot emanation" but "spells cast before" doesn't mean "spells cast before"  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /> To me, it doesn't get much simpler than "Spells of 4th level and higher are not affected by the globe, nor are spells already in effect when the globe is cast."And what are you doing on the boards anyways - anniversary over already?  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /></blockquote>
