Oh, that's an interesting perspective. I understand your point now (even though I'm not sure I'm totally convinced).

Invoking "common sense" when discussing how magic works seems of dubious validity. I'm certainly with you there. Actually, that's exactly what it does. The caster has taken the Cast a Spell action, so normally they would not be able to make a melee attack at all; the spell provides an...

It's ok, it's just a bad dream. Click your heels together three times and it will go away.

Indeed, it does not specify, but it also doesn't say it emits light even though some other fire spells say how much light they emit. So I'd just ignore the omission and apply the same principles - it's dealing 5d8 damage, so my take is that like paper or thin wood ignites if it lasts for at...

If you want a voice of reason, you have lum to the wrong thread.

BoED will die on its own. If we do not quash the madness now, it will keep rising to the top like some loathsome oil slick and end up fouling the beaches of ENWorld (i.e., winning this Survivor thread). I mean, there are people here literally chanting its praises! (Which is weird, because...

Yeah, I noticed the same thing. And centipedes aren't insects, either. A couple more unforced errors that don't really matter, but, for me, contribute to the slip-shod feel of their presentation of 5e. I mean, it's shorter to just say "Swarm of spiders" and even though there is a generic...

I think others have covered your original questions. I'll just add that I think the condition immunities for swarms are overly broad. For instance, if the swarm comprises creatures that could be frightened individually, I'm inclined to allow a portion of a swarm to be frightened if subject to...
