Since you mention it, I always wonder why no wizard in an official D&D adventure ever seems to have shield prepared — or even in their spellbook. Seems like a pretty big oversight.

My bard always used it against spellcasters.
In ADnD magic missile at level 9 was one of the best ways to deal with enemy high level spellcasters. An initiative modifier of 1 and the ability to split it was more effective than 5e counterspell.
High level spells had higher ini modifiers. So your chance to disable up to 5 spellcasters each round was incredibly useful.

On topic - that classic picture of Emikol the Chaotic blasting people in the city? Sure, it may look like some kind of ray spell. But we all know in our hearts he's using the most gangsta of all spells, MAGIC FREAKIN' MISSILE.

This is why I just don’t listen to the official stats for commoners. Instead, 1st level PCs aren’t special when it comes to HP. (Well high con Barbarians still are way outside the norm)
Basically they all have d8 hit die starting HP, unless they’re noticeably frail.
The idea of almost anything having 1 HP is just silly to me. The cat can kill another cat with one non even especially precise strike? Really?

In 5e, it's great against enemy casters (barring use of the shield spell), because it will provoke three separate concentration checks.
Well if you want the truly definitive answer.....

Disclaimer: This topic is completely silly and for fun. Lets keep it light, I know how serious some people like to take this stuff. Also, for my 4d6 statistics, I ran 4 million random number simulations to get the numbers. So the % should be very close, certainly close enough for this, but they...
