Long-Distance Cast is a short-lived projectile with an Expiration Trigger that goes through terrain like Drilling Shot but faster and releases a spell after its death.

Tips

• Synergizes well with dangerous static projectiles, like Explosion and most of its variants.
  • Does not cast far enough to make Explosion of Thunder safe to use, however.
  • Also makes Touch of Water and related spells almost entirely safe to cast - but beware that it can still bounce off of shields.
• Like other Trigger spells, it will ignore the cast delay modifiers of the spells it contains.
• It reaches the maximum speed of a projectile and its distance cannot be increased by modifiers that affect projectile speed.
• When used with modifiers that increase a projectile's lifetime the range will be increased. Phasing Arc also works.
• Can allow the projectile to cast through walls.
  • However, the distance is reduced when casting through particularly hard material, suggesting that the projectile has something similar to the Drilling Shot modifier that is slowed down when passing through material.
• Can be used alongside (Small) Teleport Bolt or Return to travel through the Holy Mountain without it collapsing or angering the gods
  • This can be done either by clearing the mud in the pools of water and casting through the brickwork or by teleporting past the vertical barrier on the right of the temple
  • Swapper could also be used, though this would also require enemies or props on the other side of the Holy Mountain, or could be done using spells that summon entities such as Summon Fish/Rock
• When combined with damage enhancement modifiers, it can deal damage through walls.
• When used with limited-use modifiers, e.g. Matter Eater, it can make that modifier unlimited. E.g. a wand with just Matter Eater and Long-Distance Cast on it will not deplete the remaining charges from the Matter Eater. However, if there are any other projectiles on the wand that are cast, this effect will not work. See Expert Guide: Discards from the Hand for details.
