Flame Strike
A pillar of flame engulfs all within the area of effect, inflicting 1d6 points of damage per caster level (up to 15d6) + 1d6 per 2 caster levels after caster level 15 (maximum 27d6). Half of the damage caused by the spell is divine and the other half is fire-based. Only enemies are struck, by both damage types; allies are not harmed, but the caster is if standing in the area.

How it works
- Half the dice are fire and half are divine. An odd die is dropped, so level 40 gives 13 dice of each.
- It reaches 3.33 metres, whether or not you can see the targets, and hits doors and placeables as well.
