Template:Usage-open

This template is for spell pages with standard cast and open cast versions. In December 2020 every one of the spells using this template was updated to use EVOKE, hence the name difference between this and other Usage templates.

Usage

  • PREP {{{s}}} | CAST {target} or INCANT {{{s}}} to cast this spell against a single target
  • PREP {{{s}}} | CAST to cast the OPEN version of the spell against multiple creature targets in the room
  • INCANT {{{s}}} OPEN to open cast this spell once using INCANT
  • INCANT SET OPEN {{{s}}} to always open cast this spell using INCANT {{{s}}}
  • INCANT {{{s}}} EVOKE to cast the OPEN version of the spell once using INCANT. This may potentially hit non-creatures (i.e. other player characters)
  • INCANT SET EVOKE {{{s}}} to always evoke this spell using INCANT {{{s}}}. This is not recommended for open cast AoE attack spells

Instructions

Copy/paste code
{{Usage-open|
|s= 
|1= 
|a= 
|2= }}
Instructions
  • s is the spell number.
  • 1 defaults to "cast this spell against a single target." Delete |1= line if that is acceptable.
  • a defaults to " against multiple creature targets in the room" (including the space before against). Delete |a= line if that is acceptable. Change for room-affecting spells.
  • 2 defaults to nothing. Delete |2= line if that is acceptable. Add summarized information such as any lore requirement threshold. It may flow better to add a period first, or to put the entirety of 2 in parentheses.
  • insert "|3=" in the template parameters to get rid of the AoE warning.
