RedFox said:Umm, guys... maybe the intent of that wording is the emphasis on the word "foe" rather than standard AoE. In other words, spells like Fireball will work just fine on an invisible critter, because they're untargeted. But the rule is referring to stuff like Scare, where they're targeted in the AoE.
At least that's my interpretation. Admittedly the text is a bit wonky. But I see no reason why being invisible should render one immune from the effects of, say, Sleep.
You've got it backwards - the invisible person isn't being hit by the fireball; the invisible person is casting the fireball. The point under discussion is what actions cause an invisibility spell to terminate.
Hitting an enemy goblin with an axe ends your invisibility. Hitting a rope with an axe does not.
Casting a fireball that includes an enemy goblin in its area ends your invisibility. Casting a fireball that includes a rope in its area... well, it's debatable.
Is fireball a 'spell that foes resist with saving throws' inherently? Or does that refer to a specific instance of the spell - this fireball, foes resisted with saving throws, but that fireball, targeted on empty space, nobody resisted at all?
