[QUOTE="ThirdWizard, post: 1259852, member: 12037"] This could be covered by: "Same Effect More than Once in Different Strengths: In cases when two or more identical spells are operating in the same area or on the same target, but at different strengths, only the best one applies." "One Effect Makes Another Irrelevant: Sometimes, one spell can render a later spell irrelevant. Both spells are still active, but one has rendered the other useless in some fashion." Neither is perfect though. The generic rule presented is that "Spells or magical effects usually work as described, no matter how many other spells or magical effects happen to be operating in the same area or on the same recipient. Except in special cases, a spell does not affect the way another spell operates. Whenever a spell has a specific effect on other spells, the spell description explains that effect. Several other general rules apply when spells or magical effects operate in the same place:" So, it looks like damaging effects, which arn't bonuses or penalties, would both apply. So if you had someone in two sleet storm areas, then that character would take both damaging effects. That's the best I can find. Info on damage spells occupying the same area is not forthcoming in the SRD that I can see. [/QUOTE]
