#61398, "Question about Malefic Glow"


          

Does the vuln affect only apply when the inherent is used (or the spell cast by the anti-paladin), or would it also apply if the faerie fire effect came from a "consumable" magic item (wand, talisman, scroll)?

Using a faerie fire wand doesn't give any echo suggesting the extra malediction.

Are you mixing up the bioluminescence wand for a faerie fire wand by chance?

Didn't know there was an echo. That makes this question considerably dumber.

You zap a human soldier with a FAERIE FIRE WAND.
A human soldier is surrounded by a pink outline.
A crackling web of cold energy courses over a human soldier.

I guess I've never really thought of the two as being mechanically different.
