Message: <blockquote data-quote="Creamsteak" data-source="post: 3944470" data-attributes="member: 552">Spell compendium has some other spells in a similar vein:[sblock=Light of Lunia]LIGHT OF LUNIAEvocation [Good, Light]Level: Celestia 1, cleric 1, sorcerer/wizard 1Components: V, SCasting Time: 1 standard actionRange: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)Target and Effect: You and up totwo rays; see textDuration: 10 minutes/level (D) oruntil discharged; see textSaving Throw: NoneSpell Resistance: Yes; see textThe silvery radiance created by this spell emanates from you in a 30-foot radius, and dim light extends for an additional 30 feet. Beginning one turn after you cast this spell, you can choose to expend some or all of the light of Lunia as a ray of light. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack with the ray to strike a target. You can make a single ranged touch attack that deals 1d6 points of damage, or 2d6 points of damage against undead or evil outsiders, with a range of 30 feet. Spell resistance applies to this attack. This dims your silvery radiance to half (15-foot light, with dim light for an additional 15 feet). You can choose to fire one additional ray with the same characteristics either on the same round or on a subsequent round. Firing the second ray quenches your radiance and ends the spell.LIGHT OF MERCURIAEvocation [Good, Light]Level: Cleric 2, sorcerer/wizard 2This spell functions like light of Lunia, except that the radiance created is golden. Your light rays deal 2d6 points of damage, or 4d6 points of damage against undead and evil outsiders.LIGHT OF VENYAEvocation [Good, Light]Level: Cleric 3, sorcerer/wizard 3This spell functions like light of Lunia, except that a softy pearly radiance is created. Your light rays deal 3d6 points of damage, or 6d6 points of damage against undead and evil outsiders. Alternatively, you can choose for the ray to heal 1d6 points of damage + your divine spellcaster level (maximum 1d6+10) to a living, non-evil creature.[/sblock][sblock=Nimbus of Light]NIMBUS OF LIGHTEvocation [Light]Level: Cleric 1, Purification 1Components: V, S, DFCasting Time: 1 standard actionRange: PersonalTarget: YouDuration: 1 minute/level or untildischarged (D)The nimbus of light around you glows like a lantern, providing bright illumination in a 30-foot radius (and shadowy illumination for an additional 30 feet) from you. As a move action, you can coalesce the energy from a nimbus of light around your outstretched  arm, and then as a standard action fling it toward a foe within 30 feet. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack with the energy to strike a target. A nimbus of light deals 1d8 points of damage +1 point per round that has elapsed since you cast the spell (maximum 1d8 + caster level). Attacking with a nimbus of light ends the spell, whether your ranged touch attack is successful or not.[/sblock]Those might also be worth mentioning for comparison. Also: Eww, I don't like the Light of Venya. It's just odd. You add "your divine spellcaster level" instead of your caster level (I guess to make it weaker for Sor/Wiz), but because you fire two bolts it's really +2 per divine caster level. So at 10th caster level it heals 2d6+20 (27 average) only affecting non-evil characters. Whereas a cure serious (same level) would only heal 22.5, and is touch range. Just awkward overall.</blockquote>
