Blast not hitting monsters outside LoS

[ratbuddy]

Per subject. Blast only hits stuff you have line of sight on, even if it's in the radius of effect.

AoE abilities that you cast at the edge of your LoS should still hit enemies. Are you sure you aren't making a mistake in regards to enemies that are immune to damage outside your LoS (IE, Enemies inside Vaults are immune to damage UNTIL you have LoS on them).

I am quite sure I know how to shoot around corners with AoE. It's not working properly

edit: I should clarify, it still hits things even if I can't see them, but only if there would be sight if I wasn't blind or had larger light/vision radius. It's not hitting anything around corners. That's what I mean by line of sight.

That's blast, just to save folks a bit of time who might care to try to fix the bug
