[QUOTE="Cognomen's Cassowary, post: 7283645, member: 6801445"] I have only just begun taking a close look at the spells in XGtE, and I have been trying to keep track of the changes from Elemental Evil. I think it would be handy to have a thread compiling the differences, so let's wiki this magic! Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting: damage increased from 10d8 to 12d8 Absorb Elements: available to sorcerer Catapult: range decreased from 150 to 60 feet, reworded for clarity Create Bonfire: clarified that the fire is magic, added paragraph saying that the bonfire burns objects in its space Earth Tremor: range changed from self (10 feet) to 10 feet Immolation: initial damage increased from 7d6 to 8d6, ongoing damage increased from 3d6 to 4d6 Ice Knife: Changed to "the target and each creature within 5 feet of it" instead of "within five feet of the point of where the ice exploded" Thunderclap: range changed from self (5 feet) to 5 feet Tidal Wave: available to sorcerer That's as much as I have noticed, after delving for an hour or so. I'm sure there's a lot more, so help me out! Edit: As Pukunui points out below, somebody has already done the work. A post by InquisitiveCoder in [URL="https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/d-d-beyond-general/general-discussion/9090-ee-spells-that-are-updated-in-xanathars"]this thread[/URL] on the D&D Beyond forums, from research shared by dingosatemyusername on Reddit, details the changes. Not from Elemental Evil, but Ceremony has changed: the option for Investiture has been removed, and the Funeral Rite requires touching the corpse, and not being within 5 feet of it. [/QUOTE]
