[QUOTE="Distracted DM, post: 9502335, member: 6894926"] A fireball hits multiple squares as well, but larger creatures still only take the instance of damage from that spell once. I know folk can argue otherwise for a variety of reasons, but this would quickly make a 2nd level spell far better than would otherwise be intended. Ultimately like everything else it's up to the GM. If someone wanted to set fire to one square, then next turn someone else wanted to set fire to another square, sure that'll do damage twice. But setting fire to the whole web in one turn via burning hands, fireball, etc. and expecting a big burst of damage from it wouldn't fly with me personally :) It reminds me of those videos that say "you can deal 3000dmg with this cantrip, watch video to see how!"
