Ground area selected with the client reticle
Requirements
- Volley learned; first recorded spellbook level 40.
- Usable ranged weapon and ammunition; valid area within 35 yards.
Known limitations
- Research only: not tested in the Forever client. Beta spell names, parser behaviour and requirements may change.
- English spell names; check your spellbook and actual learned rank. Source IDs identify reference ranks, not a forced rank-1 cast.
- Range, line of sight, resources, cooldowns and the global cooldown still apply. A macro does not detect readiness or choose your next combat action.
- Existing Volley is protected from this key, but other channels are not. Confirm the reticle manually.
- Area damage can break crowd control. This does not move, retarget or restart the channel automatically.
Notes
- Researched 27 September 2026 against source beta build 1.60.1.70009. Spec lists are recommendations; actual learned spells and selected talents determine eligibility.
