King Taloren Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 No. There was an FAQ regarding this in the Malign Scorcery that stares any abilities that extend range of spells so not extend the range you set up endless spells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 The key to realise is that Spells and Endless Spells are two different keywords in the game. Therefore anything that affects a "spell" is not going to affect an "Endless Spell" and vis versa. It's why there's specific mention that wizards can unbind Endless Spells and its not just assumed that they can because they can unbind Spells. Note as far as I'm aware this affects both buffs and debuffs. So just like you can't range-boost an Endless Spell with a spell ability; you also can't reduce its range with a spell debuff ability.

Just as a quick note a nonwizard who can unbind spells like a wizard can still attempt to unbind the endless spell as it is being cast but not after it is in play.

Fluttershy Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 MALIGN SORCERY Designers’ Commentary, December 2018 Page 1 Q: Do things that increase the range of a caster’s spells also apply to the distance at which an endless spell can be set up from the caster? A: No. Things that increase the range of a spell’s effects do not apply to the distance at which an endless spell can be set up. By the same token, things that allow you to measure the range of a spell from a different location to the caster cannot be used when setting up an endless spell.

Num Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Does this FAQ mean that we cannot use umbral spellportal to cast an endless spell from the second portal instead of from the caster (in terms of range)? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Yes - I think when GW released this FAQ this was one combo that was specifically mentioned that could not happen. It's why the Spell portal went fast from almost an auto-include to a powerful, but optional and situational include. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
