The cleric must be in the realms for the beacon to remain in tact when the mage cast focus moonbeam.
Thank you Caymus. :)
Please let me know of any unintended effects or problems?

Fellow Clerics and Moonmages who frequent our boards,
In response to overwhelming requests and concerns, the following fixes to the spell Spirit Beacon are live as of this morning.
In the past, the beacon remained in place even after the body had departed or had been resurrected. With the new fix, the beacon will dissipate shortly after the body has been returned to life. In addition the spell has been adjusted in an attempt to prevent abuse of the spell in conjunction with novice characters.
Further changes to the spell Focus Moonbeam have been made to prevent a beam from being focused upon a beacon that is either inside or underground. This was never intended to be a part of this spell and was removed as a bug.
It is our hopes that the spell Spirit Beacon will be used in a manner that keeps within the spirit of its original intent. These changes are an initial attempt to encourage the proper use of the spell. A further look could be taken at the spell if it should prove necessary.

Dear Friends,
I appreciate the complaints and frustrations experienced with this spell. I am at a loss as to how to "force" folks to play by the "spirit of the game" and realize that there just is no surefire way to do this. So this is a plea and a caution.
On a case by case basis, some folks blatently using the spell in ways out of the spirit of its intent may find themselves temporarily or permanently without the ability to cast the spell. Please try to use it in a way that adds to the game enviroment, and not one that detracts from it, for as always I want you to have as much freedom to use your spells and abilities in the ways that are appropriate to your character, within the policies and spirit of our world. As in the past, I am giving you the responsibility to use this spell wisely and cautiously, please don't make me have to "fix" this spell to the point of being useless.
Thank you,
Alnilam
