[QUOTE="N'raac, post: 6062955, member: 6681948"] First, you have to wait a turn after casting before discharging. During its duration, you are a beacon in the night. I'd say that "A [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/#standardActions"]standard action[/URL] allows you to do something, most commonly make an attack or cast a spell." means that making the ranged attack with the rays of the Lights of Lunia spell is a standard action. The spell description does not provide that it is not an attack, nor that it can be performed without the usual standard action. "Produce Flame" doesn't say how long the attack takes either, and I'd impose the same standard action. Can you discharge multiple castings at the same time? Each casting is a separate spell, so I'd be inclined to rule that you can only discharge one spell, not multiple castings of the same spell, in a single standard action, so that caps the caster at 2 rays per round. I don't see anything to prevent casting the spell multiple times (they would overlap and you'd keep 30' of light until all castings are at least partially discharged). However, I would not object to a ruling that limits the caster to a single casting in effect at one time (that's all the light from Lunia that a mortal may have at any one time), or that each subsequent casting overrides the previous one. There's a matter of interpretation, but I think "you can cast this six times and then discharge 12 rays in a single round" is stretching the rules, not operating within them. [/QUOTE]
