Is this meant to 'doom' non party members within it's area of effect, ive tried searching but to no avail?

... why would you want it to affect party members?

Yes it is. Within the area of effect enemies receive -1 to attack rolls, damage rolls, skill checks, and saving throws. This is in the spell's game description, so it is hard to miss.

Prayer is a buff for caster and close by. What happens is others close by who aren't partied with you get a 'doom' effect.

So non party members are now classed as 'enemies' even though they aren't 'hostile'?

Oh, I was misreading you... I thought you were referring to the spell Doom, not Prayer. NVM.

Well, most, if not all spells that has debilitating or damaging effects will affect non party members. You just have to be careful when using it.

The thing i dont get is that it states 'enemies' suffer the penalties... i thought enemies were only the red hostile instances, not the general folks you meet.

Some spells affect neutrals and hostiles, others only affect hostiles. Doom and Prayer are two spells that will affect neutrals.

ahh ok, i thought it might have been broken. Case closed.
