Disappointment with high-level spells?

[Lonely Tylenol]

We've seen this too. We have a diviner in the party; you know how many high level divinations there are? Pretty much diddly, as it turns out. And our clerics generally fill up most of their 7th lvl spell slots with 6th lvl spells, because the cleric 6th lvl spells are usually so much more useful.

I'd love to see more innovative high level spells.

This is a niche that I am quite surprised has not been filled by a 3rd-party publisher. I mean, there's lots of spells out there, but I can't think of any that focus on really interesting high-level spells. There's a lot of potential there that you don't have at lower levels.

Oh I'm sure there's some 9th-level Druid spells you can do.

Heck, if you like lower level spells so much, take Heighten Spell and make those favorite 5th and 6th level spells also 8th and 9th level spells, better save DC.

Here's a list I have from my official WotC 3rd Edition spell list file for 9th level Druid spells.
