| Description      = The caster creates up to three rays of necromantic energy and hurls them at targets within range and within the radius of the area of effect. They make a ranged touch attack for each ray and only one ray can strike a target at a time. On a hit, the target takes 10 + 1d4 Entropic damage per caster levels up to a maximum of 20d4. Targets struck by the rays are allowed a fortitude save to only take half damage. If this damage reduces a living target to 0 hit points, it dies instantly and withers into a husk. Inorganic targets such as constructs do not wither but are not immune to this spell's damage.

Description: The caster creates 1 beam per 3 Caster Level, to a maximum of 5 beams of necromantic energy and hurls them at targets within range and within the radius of the area of effect. They make a ranged touch attack for each ray and only one ray can strike a target at a time. On a hit, the target takes 10 + 1d4 Entropic damage per caster levels up to a maximum of 20d4. Targets struck by the rays are allowed a fortitude save to only take half damage. If this damage reduces a living target to 0 hit points, it dies instantly and withers into a husk. Inorganic targets such as constructs do not wither but are not immune to this spell's damage.

Notes

Direct damage spells. See Persistent AoE spells also. Disclaimer: Values are compiled for general comparison and are not equivalent due to the many hundreds of variables that cannot be qualified on a simple table. For example, don't attempt to compare Hemomancer's or Elementalist's spells with other spells because the Invoker's spells are assumed to be at maximum stacks.
