AOE

Abbreviation for "Area of Effect". Commonly used to describe skills that do not affect one single target but all possible targets in a certain area. Examples are Fire Storm, Suffering or Heal Area.

Note: Unlike other games, AoE spells must be cast on an enemy. So, even though they affect an area, they must be targeted at a single enemy and they will hit the area around where that enemy is standing. Also note, that if the enemy moves outside the area, they will no longer be affected.
