If the target is soaked or in water, all targets within a 15 ft. sphere must make the same save.   Invoke Flame (Recharge 5-6): The Lainero does one of the following:   The Lainero exhales fire in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 22 Dexterity saving throw, taking 52 15d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.   Thrusting its weapon into the ground, the Lainero detonates a wave of flame that sweeps out from it. Each creature in a 20-foot circle originating from the Lainero must make a DC 22 Dexterity saving throw.
