[edit] Usage

Unlike FissureVolcano's damage is concentrated on the point of casting; the splash damage to nearby monsters is practically negligible.  The general tactic is to somehow immobilize a monster - such as by diverting its attention with a mercenary or minion - and plant a volcano under it.  As long as the monster stands in the same location, it will receive a majority of the damage.  Once the monster moves, however, the damage it will receive from the volcano will be negligible. 

Volcano cannot be cast too near an obstruction, such as a wall.  It is best used in an open space with a mercenary or minion immobilizing the single target monster.

[edit] History

A Druid trained in this ability possesses the power to summon from the bowels of the earth a violent eruption, raining molten rock down upon all nearby foes.
