If it takes, say, 3 melee attacks to do 50 damage, that's a total of 12d6 + 3*Int + 6*Enhancement; average 42+24+36 = 102. Sadly, it's not an attack so it doesn't trigger lasting frost. Because it blocks line of sight, teleporting out doesn't seem to be an option for most characters.Necrotic Web: on average, a creature is immobilized for 1.8 rounds, and will take damage for 1 round more than that (as breaking out is at the end of the round). Thus, we get an average of 2.8 attacks for 4d6+Enhancement (20 points each, so 56) and one attack for 4d6+Int+Enhancement (28) for a total of 84. It gets worse if you hit someone who just broke out with Ray of Frost or another slow effect.Evard's Black Tentacles does somewhat less damage, but covers a bit more area.</blockquote>
