Yes, all 6 monster can be hit. The only direction that does not work from is the direction in the picture (east shooting west). The extra shaded space at the back on ToS 5 is what opens this possibility up. Prior to that it would only hit the front 3 squares.
Also to reiterate
Accuracy = both melee and ranged accuracy. Good for everyone! Melee accuracy = only works on melee attacks. Good for Vraes, Kincaid (not Throwing knives though), melee Vincent, Fyona, melee Kyera, and melee Selen. Does nothing for Tamilin. Ranged accuracy = only works on ranged attacks and spells. Good for Kincaid (Throwing Knives), spell Vincent, spell Kyera, bow Selen, and Tamilin (all her attacks). Does nothing for Vraes or Fyona.

Alright, I've got to reread all the dice things so I understand the strong vs standard thing. In the meantime, I'm hearing that accuracy gear does ZERO good for Tamilin. It must be ranged. As for the target vector, you're right, a picture does definitely make it easier to understand. That's a very strange bug though...just try not to shoot that way I guess, eh? The one picture you DIDN'T show me is the one I was asking about though. Say we were flip-flopped in your last picture and I was shooting the opposite way (or better yet, I was below three guys in a line and centered on the middle one) and let's say there were two rows of three, one directly behind the other....could I hit all six? Using your perpendicular line example I should be able to, correct? Assuming I was high enough in requisite abilities to hit 6 monsters at once... xx Me> xx xx Those x's line up in the post but not when posted but I think you get what I'm asking.... Tam benefits from acc AND ranged acc both, but not MELEE acc. Tam has no melee, only ranged, throwing knives she can uniquely use at 1 range, but it is not melee for her.

Oh, I guess I haven't seen anything in game yet that specifically says Melee Accuracy. I've only seen gear that says either Ranged Accuracy or just plain Accuracy. Thanks for the clarification. Now....
I've just started Episode 2 in the Conquered Keep and I find that the difficulty level just went WAAAAAAYYYY up. :-) I've got some questions about my party but I think I'll start a new thread since it doesn't specifically deal with only Tamilin. Thanks again for your help and hopefully you can give me some insight on the new thread.
By the way, what does the Exalt/Smite thing do/mean? And how about the thumbs-up? Are there benefits? Should they be used judiciously or liberally or does it matter? For instance, I'm very happy I got such quick responses so seems like Exalt to me....
Oh yeah, the new thread will be called Episode 2: To re-spec or not to re-spec. That is the question....

dagger - lol, good thread title. Thumbs up - likes a thread. Not sure what effect is really has? Exalt / Smite changes a user's karma positively or negatively. That number sticks with them permanently. Exalt liberally, Smite carefully imho.

I guess not too liberally....apparently you need to wait 15 minutes between hitting buttons.... :-)
