[edit] Effect stack

I have a question that isn't cleared up by this page... if I cast two identical fire damage spells with durations, does the damage stack or does it simply increase the duration?

Example... when casting multiple "weak fireballs", should I be waiting for the effects to expire between casts or just casting them as quickly as possible? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 206.45.72.4 (talk • contribs).

If you cast multiple effects with the same name the effect will be replaced over and over again (i.e. you cast five times a custom spell with 5 pts for 2 sec consecutively, the effect will just keep replacing). But if you cast two different named spells, then the effects will stack (i.e. you have a spell named 01 and another named 02, both with the same effect, then the effects will stack). This applies for all the spells.--S'drassa 02:14, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I thought it worked like that from my observations, but I couldn't find anything in the wiki to confirm it. Could/should this be added somewhere? 206.45.72.49 16:50, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
