OMG. Loving combat. Haven't felt this challenged since a certain little red dragon, that my username references. I'm on my 2nd playthru, this time on nightmare as a mage, and I'm now noticing stuff that I don't understand.

1. My mage's attack is structured in 5s and the 5th one looks different. Why is that? I have damage numbers on and it doesn't seem to do more damage. In fact the 5th shot seems to do less, on average. But there is a longer pause after 5, which is a good time to run somewhere else, I've found. Is that it, or is there more? 

2. Also, what's going on here? Oh no. I was going to post a screenshot, but I just realised that I thought I'd captured it but Fraps wasn't running. Battle's over now. I'll try to explain. So, Mage Hawke has Winter's Grasp boosted with 40% brittle chance. He cast it on an enemy as Aveline was running past and they both went brittle and then subsequently both took damage from Hawke's next melee attacks. Does Winter's Grasp have a small AoE? And why is Aveline getting hit? I get why she takes damage from Carver, but why from Hawke when she is standing next to his target?

edit. 3. Is there any way to tell what Dog's up to?

4. Any tips for effective use of cone of cold. I took it as a hangover from Origins, but it doesn't deal much damage so far, and the party is always in the way. *shrugs*

(Also, I think they were brittle, but I turned on status effects and it seems to often say "stunned" when targets are other states too. Maybe a little glitch?)

Any insight appreciated. Also, I love these subtleties, so I'd love people to enlighten me as to more.

I usually use cone of cold when a new mob spawns mid-battle near my mage... in that circumstance it's usually a great spell and easy to use to slow down the new mob until my warriors and rogues can come in.

2: Winters Grasp has a very small aoe. (which then explains all your questions)
