Do spellcasters actually have to be attacking the Dao Lord with the red iron weapons? Will holding the red iron weapons while attacking with a spell trigger the quest flag?

Being in the room when the Dao is killed is all that is needed to receive the flag.

You can only have a maximum of 10 duration spells cast on you in mmud. So if you are "10 spelled" then you can't be effected by any more spells.
