Ground effect
A ground effect is the general term for a terrain hazard that has some consequence on characters or monsters positioned on it. The burning ground created by the Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Fire Trap". Please choose only one of the following ids:

Mechanics
Ground effects do not affect allies of the character that created them. Likewise, ground effects created by monsters or the environment will not affect other monsters. All totems are immune to ground effects.
'Flying' monsters, including Soulless Watchers, are not affected by certain ground effects that lie close to the ground. Other ground effects, such as those that consist of vapor or smoke, can influence monsters above the ground as well.[1]
