Shortened and clarified other spell examples

Changed way some examples are used and deepened the explanation based on feedback about single rolls for other beam/ray spells

| Dec 24, 2018 at 21:35 | comment | added | Guybrush McKenzie | @Medix2 okay. I’ll change the examples in my answer and clarify my position some more. Though it sounds like you disagree with my answer, perhaps you should post your own with your different take? | |
| Dec 24, 2018 at 14:23 | comment | added | Exempt-Medic | @McKenzie "If a spell or other effect deals damage to more than one target at the same time" this (and magic missile) is indeed a single spell hitting more than one target at the same time. | |
| Dec 24, 2018 at 7:23 | comment | added | Guybrush McKenzie | @Medix2 ah - but that’s “each target”, and the rule for rolling damage covers multiple targets taking the same damage from a single effect, which fireball clearly is. | |
| Dec 24, 2018 at 6:08 | comment | added | Exempt-Medic | @McKenzie fireball also says "Each creature takes 8d6 fire damage", yet each takes the same amount, not different ones. | |
| Dec 24, 2018 at 4:56 | comment | added | Guybrush McKenzie | @Medix2 hmmm...yes. Not so clear as I thought, perhaps. Though I note that ruling becomes very confusing when concentrating fire or splitting damage unevenly; and the spell does say “each dart deals 1d4+1 force damage”... | |

Removed reference to RAW/RAI in header, since I can only guess at RAI
