EQ and Other Area Spells - Range

[WiseOne]

Up until today I though that all but the 2 tiles of houses closest to the wall were safe from area covering spells being cast outside. I was proved wrong by a generous passerby who was kind enough to show me it is indeed possible for animals and players alike to take damage while being farther that 2 tiles into the house (a tower in this case).

Does anyone know the exact range of EQ and other spells that can be cast outside and still harm you inside?

Thanks!

I believe EQ has an 8 tile radius, thus not being safe anywhere in a tower. Only a keep or castle can protect you from EQ.

MS and Chainlightning only have the 3 tile radius (the wall and the next 2 tiles).

Thanks Pirul, you are truly a UO knowledge guru. I will start sending you private messages instead of posting on the forums since you get it every time anyway

Cheers

Glad to be of service!
