+And AoE of 2 or higher means that the spell or effect will target a total number of squares equal to the AoE value. For example, an AoE 9 spell will hit 9 squares on the battlefield, although the distribution is based on RNG and does not have to be even, so the final area that it affects will not necessarily be a 3x3 square.
+The initial target of an effect is always a single square as defined by targeting AI and precision. From the initial square, targeting follows this logic:
+  - A random adjacent (including diagonal) square is selected
+  - If it is empty, it is targeted and the process goes to step 1
+  - If it has already been targeted, it becomes the new origin point and the process goes to step 1
+  - Repeat until the total number of targeted squares is reached
