You can't place the fog cloud behind the unseen wall, and if you try, it ends up in front of the wall instead. The relationship between those two sentences can be resolved as You can't do A. Suddenly, the wizard gains some kind of radar that allows him to check if the path in front of him is free, and circulate quickly in a maze made of prismatic walls without harm. What bothers me is that the first option seemed to have an broad consensus (~90 person before the associated answer update): not only does it render the second sentence obsolete, but it allows the player to gain information on it's environment without spending actions. if you feel this falls into invalid targeting.

You can't do A, but if you do, then B happens. If you place an area of effect at a point that you can't see and an obstruction, such as a wall, is between you and that point, the point of origin comes into being on the near side of that obstruction.Īnd now suddenly I'm lost. This seems straightforward: you can't target a point/creature/object/thing behind total cover. To target something, you must have a clear path to it, so it can't be behind total cover. I'm puzzled by the " a clear path to the target" rule.
