Notes
Given to you by Arniel Gane during the quest Arniel's Endeavor

Burns the target 1 points per second. Targets on fire take extra damage.

Arniel's Convection is a destruction spell that deals fire damage and sets targets on fire. It is not intended to be used in combat, but is instead needed during the quest Arniel's Endeavor to heat Dwarven Convectors.

Effects

• Flames, 1 pt for 3 secs

Notes

• While Arniel's Convection is not affected by the Novice Destruction perk (since its spell object doesn't have an assigned casting perk), it is possible to reduce the casting cost to 0 by raising your destruction skill.
• Like most fire spells, it can be used to set off fire runes or oil slicks from a safe distance (though firebolt or fireball may be preferable due to their greater range).

Bugs

• Having this spell equipped and drawn will not set off flammable gas, due to never having been added to the relevant form list for explosive gas traps, TrapGasMagicDrawn.
  • The Unofficial Skyrim Patch, version 2.0.4, fixes this bug.
