You cannot cast spells that require this component if you cannot move causing arcane spell failure resulting in a ruined spell. Spells without a somatic component may be used with disregard to Arcane Spell Failure chance. Note - that characters make the same arm gestures for most spells in DDO, so you can't tell which spells require this component by watching your character's animations.

Description: A shining ray of multicolored light blinds creatures with 8 Hit Die or less for 12 to 48 seconds, and does 1 of 7 harmful effects at random to one target, with a 12.5% of inflicting a second different effect from that 7. These 7 effects are detailed as follows: Red Ray: 4*caster level fire damage, a successful Reflex save reduces the damage dealt by half Orange Ray: 5*caster level acid damage, a successful Reflex save reduces the damage dealt by half Yellow Ray: 6*caster level electrical damage, a successful Reflex save reduces the damage dealt by half Green Ray: Instant Death (Ignores Death immunity.), deals Constitution damage on a successful Fortitude save (Poison effect negated by Poison Immunity.) Blue Ray: Turns victim to stone permanently, Fortitude save negates Indigo: Victim is stricken with permanent Fear status, Will save negates Violet: Sends victim to another plane (Instant Death, ignores Death Immunity.), Will save negates. Note that Spell Resistance does not protect against any of these effects, including the non-damaging ones. This spell is random, but interesting. The violet beam can be extremely powerful, especially when used against enemies who are otherwise immune to most other insta-kill effects. Prismatic Ray was nerfed in Update 34, the two death effects no longer ignore deathblock/death ward. Reception: DDO Forums
