Spells

When you cast a spell and it spreads throughout the screen -this is how spells are now which makes people mad the melees.
How bout just one of them hits the monster it takes less mana though, you select a target meaning click on the monster it will show an arrow on top of it then you cast the spell and it go to that monster and hit it.This balances out the melees and the wizards.

That would work well for some spells, like magic missile, but other spells aren't designed for that. What you're saying is that each monster .. gets it's own little snowstorm? That's sort of silly.. at any rate, it wouldn't make anyone any happier, because the sorcerers would just cast it multiple times, and get, basically, the same effect as before.

Some spells should be more targeted than they are now. Like some spells create a line of effect, and they go right through the baddy and hit other baddies behind it. And then if a baddy wanders into the line before it disappears, that one's toast too.

Some of these spells should be more like, a projectile shoots out and disappears the first time it hits something.

But I don't want to get rid of all the area-effect spells, either. Maybe just have fewer of them?

instead of making big snow storms, make the snow storm apear over the baddies head that it is affecting. Like if I used small snowstorm, it might affect 1-3 baddies... if I used large, it will affect 1-8 or something... So its not filling the screen, just a small little bit over the baddies head... like, kinda small...
