I have a character who has, over the course of play, become drawn to the power of frost. So, for fun and as a way to kill time, I've converted some Pathfinder spells over to 5e. I definitely won't be using all of them, but maybe someone here will. For reference, I've also put the original spell (copied from d20pfsrd) above the conversion. One thing that shows up in several of the Pathfinder spells is the Staggered condition. </p><p></p><p>There isn't really an equivalent, so there are a few different things I've done to those spells.</p><p></p><p>I'll also add that I haven't looked to see how these spells compare to official spells in terms of power, so some may be over- or under-powered. Please look and critique.</p><p></p><p>1st Level</p><p></p><p>Ice Armor</p><p>[sblock=PF]<em><u>Ice Armor</u></em></p><p><strong>School </strong>transmutation [cold, water]; <strong>Level </strong>cleric 1/oracle 1, druid 1</p><p>Casting</p><p><strong>Casting Time</strong> 1 minute</p><p><strong>Components </strong>V, S, F (5 gallons of water)</p><p>Effect</p><p><strong>Range </strong>0 ft.</p><p><strong>Effect </strong>a suit of armor made of ice</p><p><strong>Duration </strong>1 hour/level or until destroyed</p><p><strong>Saving Throw</strong> none; <strong>Spell Resistance</strong> no</p><p>Description</p><p>You create a suit of armor made of ice. While cold to the touch, it does not harm the wearer, especially if worn over normal clothing (though it can hasten the effects of exposure in cold environments). It offers the same protection as breastplate armor, except it has hardness 0 and 30 hit points. If the intended wearer is submersed in water when you cast this spell, you may form the armor around the wearer (who may be you); otherwise the wearer must don the armor normally. Attacks against the wearer that create heat or fire degrade the armor, reducing its Armor Class by 1 for every 5 points of fire damage the wearer takes; when the armor's AC reaches 0, the spell ends. Because the ice is slightly buoyant, the wearer gains a +2 circumstance bonus on Swim checks, except when swimming downward. This armor is freely wearable by druids.[/sblock]</p><p>[sblock=5e]ICE ARMOR</p><p><em>1st-level transmutation</em></p><p><strong>Casting Time</strong> 1 action</p><p><strong>Range </strong>self</p><p><strong>Components </strong>V, S, M (5 gallons of water)</p><p><strong>Duration </strong>8 hours</p><p>You create a breastplate of magical ice.

The frosthammer counts as having a +1 enhancement bonus for the purpose of bypassing DR. If the target takes any bludgeoning damage from the hammer, you may attempt a trip combat maneuver check against that target, except you may use your caster level instead of your BAB and your spellcasting ability modifier (Wisdom for clerics, and so on) instead of your Strength modifier.[/sblock]</p><p>[sblock=5e]FROSTHAMMER</p><p><em>3rd-level evocation</em></p><p><strong>Casting Time</strong> 1 action</p><p><strong>Range </strong>120 ft</p><p><strong>Components </strong>V, S</p><p><strong>Duration </strong>instantaneous</p><p>You create a warhammer of magically hardened ice and send it hurling toward a creature.

One or more giant spears of ice lance up out of the ground. Each stalagmite-like icicle affects a 5-foot square and tapers to a height of 10 feet. You may cause a number of ice spears equal to one spear for every 4 caster levels you possess to burst from the ground. A creature that occupies a square from which a spear extends (or that is within 10 feet of the ground below) takes 2d6 points of piercing damage and 2d6 points of cold damage per square-creatures that take up more than 1 square can be hit by multiple spears if your caster level is high enough. The explosive growth can also trip foes. When the spears erupt from the ground, they attempt a combat maneuver check to trip any targets that take damage from the spears, with a total bonus equal to your caster level plus your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier, whichever is highest. Each additional ice spear beyond the first that strikes a single foe grants a +10 bonus on this combat maneuver check. If the check is successful, the ice spears knock the foe prone. A successful Reflex save halves the damage and prevents the trip attempt. If you cast this spell upon an area covered with ice or snow, such as a glacier, frozen lake, or snow-covered field, the spears strike with additional force. Saves against the effect take a -2 penalty, and the spell effect gains a +4 bonus on the combat maneuver check to trip foes. Ice spears created by this spell remain after they do their damage. They melt as normal depending on the surrounding environment. They no longer damage foes in their square, but can provide cover. An ice spear has hardness 5 and 30 hit points.[/sblock]</p><p>[sblock=5e]ICE SPEAR</p><p><em>3rd-level conjuration</em></p><p><strong>Casting Time</strong> 1 action</p><p><strong>Range </strong>60 ft</p><p><strong>Components </strong>V, S, M (a small stalagmite-shaped crystal)</p><p><strong>Duration </strong>instantaneous</p><p>A giant spear of ice lances up out of the ground.

A creature that occupies the square or is less than 10 feet above the ground below from which the spear extends takes 2d6 points of piercing damage and 2d6 points of cold damage The explosive growth can also trip foes. When the spears erupt from the ground, the creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they are knocked prone. A successful save halves the damage and they are not knocked prone. If you cast this spell on an area covered with ice or snow, such as a glacier, frozen lake, or snow-covered field, the save is made at disadvantage. Ice spears created by this spell remain after they do their damage. They melt as normal depending on the surrounding environment. They no longer damage foes in their square, but can provide cover.</p><p><strong>At Higher Levels</strong> When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you may summon one more spear for each slot level above 3rd.

As an immediate action whenever you are affected by a spell cast by another creature, you can fire one of your vengeful comets as a bolt of icy retribution (provided the source of the offensive spell is within range of your vengeful comet, of course). The comet requires a ranged touch attack to hit. If it hits, a comet deals 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage and 3d6 points of cold damage to the target, plus an additional amount of cold damage equal to the level of the spell you are retaliating against.

[QUOTE="User_Undefined, post: 7156271, member: 6704138"] Hey people. I have a character who has, over the course of play, become drawn to the power of frost. So, for fun and as a way to kill time, I've converted some Pathfinder spells over to 5e. I definitely won't be using all of them, but maybe someone here will. For reference, I've also put the original spell (copied from d20pfsrd) above the conversion. One thing that shows up in several of the Pathfinder spells is the Staggered condition. There isn't really an equivalent, so there are a few different things I've done to those spells. I'll also add that I haven't looked to see how these spells compare to official spells in terms of power, so some may be over- or under-powered. Please look and critique. 1st Level Ice Armor [sblock=PF][I][U]Ice Armor[/U][/I] [B]School [/B]transmutation [cold, water]; [B]Level [/B]cleric 1/oracle 1, druid 1 Casting [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 minute [B]Components [/B]V, S, F (5 gallons of water) Effect [B]Range [/B]0 ft. [B]Effect [/B]a suit of armor made of ice [B]Duration [/B]1 hour/level or until destroyed [B]Saving Throw[/B] none; [B]Spell Resistance[/B] no Description You create a suit of armor made of ice. While cold to the touch, it does not harm the wearer, especially if worn over normal clothing (though it can hasten the effects of exposure in cold environments). It offers the same protection as breastplate armor, except it has hardness 0 and 30 hit points. If the intended wearer is submersed in water when you cast this spell, you may form the armor around the wearer (who may be you); otherwise the wearer must don the armor normally. Attacks against the wearer that create heat or fire degrade the armor, reducing its Armor Class by 1 for every 5 points of fire damage the wearer takes; when the armor's AC reaches 0, the spell ends. Because the ice is slightly buoyant, the wearer gains a +2 circumstance bonus on Swim checks, except when swimming downward. This armor is freely wearable by druids.[/sblock] [sblock=5e]ICE ARMOR [I]1st-level transmutation[/I] [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 action [B]Range [/B]self [B]Components [/B]V, S, M (5 gallons of water) [B]Duration [/B]8 hours You create a breastplate of magical ice. You are proficient with this armor. While wearing this armor, you have resistance to cold damage and advantage on Athletics (Strength) checks related to swimming.[/sblock] Snowball [sblock=PF][I][U]Snowball[/U][/I] [B]School [/B]conjuration (creation) [cold, water]; [B]Level [/B]druid 1, magus 1, sorcerer/wizard 1, summoner 1, witch 1 Casting [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 standard action [B]Components [/B]V, S Effect [B]Range [/B]close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Effect [/B]one ball of ice and snow [B]Duration [/B]instantaneous [B]Saving Throw[/B] Fortitude partial (see text); [B]Spell Resistance[/B] no Description You conjure a ball of packed ice and snow that you can throw at a single target as a ranged touch attack. On a successful hit, the snowball deals 1d6 points of cold damage per caster level (maximum 5d6), and the target must make a successful Fortitude saving throw or be staggered for 1 round.[/sblock] [sblock=5e]SNOWBALL [I]1st-level conjuration[/I] [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 action [B]Range [/B]60 ft [B]Component [/B]V, S [B]Duration [/B]instantaneous You conjure a ball of packed ice and snow that you can throw at a single target. On a successful hit, the snowball deals 1d6 points of cold damage, and the target must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the target has disadvantage on their next attack roll. [B]At Higher Levels[/B] When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 1st.[/sblock] 2nd Level Chill Metal [sblock=PF][I][U]Chill Metal[/U][/I] [B]School [/B]transmutation [cold]; [B]Level [/B]druid 2 Casting [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 standard action [B]Components [/B]V, S, DF Effect [B]Range [/B]close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Targets [/B]metal equipment of one creature per two levels, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart; or 25 lbs. of metal/level, none of which can be more than 30 ft. away from any of the rest [B]Duration [/B]7 rounds [B]Saving Throw[/B] Will negates (object); [B]Spell Resistance[/B] yes (object) Description Chill metal makes metal extremely cold. Unattended, nonmagical metal gets no saving throw. Magical metal is allowed a saving throw against the spell. An item in a creature's possession uses the creature's saving throw bonus unless its own is higher. A creature takes cold damage if its equipment is chilled. It takes full damage if its armor, shield, or weapon is affected. The creature takes minimum damage (1 point or 2 points; see the table) if it's not wearing or wielding such an item. On the first round of the spell, the metal becomes chilly and uncomfortable to touch but deals no damage. The same effect also occurs on the last round of the spell's duration. During the second (and also the next-to-last) round, icy coldness causes pain and damage. In the third, fourth, and fifth rounds, the metal is freezing cold, and causes more damage, as shown on the table below. Round Metal Temperature Damage 1 Cold None 2 Icy 1d4 points 3-5 Freezing 2d4 points 6 Icy 1d4 points 7 Cold None Any heat intense enough to damage the creature negates cold damage from the spell (and vice versa) on a point-for-point basis. Underwater, chill metal deals no damage, but ice immediately forms around the affected metal, making it float if unattended. Chill metal counters and dispels heat metal.[/sblock] [sblock=5e]CHILL METAL [I]2nd-level transmutation[/I] [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 action [B]Range [/B]60 feet [B]Components [/B]V, S, M (a piece of iron and a cup of water) [B]Duration [/B]Concentration, up to 1 minute Choose a manufactured metal object, such as a metal weapon or a suit of heavy or medium metal armor, that you can see within range. You cause the object to ice over. Any creature in physical contact with the object takes 2d8 cold damage when you cast the spell. Until the spell ends, you can use a bonus action on each of your subsequent turns to cause this damage again. If a creature is holding or wearing the object and takes the damage from it, the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or drop the object if it can. If it doesn't drop the object, it has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the start of your next turn. Chill metal counters and dispels heat metal.

[B]At Higher Levels[/B] When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 2nd.[/sblock] Frost Fall [sblock=PF][I][U]Frost Fall[/U][/I] [B]School [/B]evocation [cold]; [B]Level [/B]druid 2, sorcerer/wizard 2, witch 2 Casting [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 standard action [B]Components [/B]V, S [B]Effect[/B] [B]Range [/B]close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Area [/B]5-foot radius burst [B]Duration [/B]1 round/2 levels [B]Saving Throw[/B] Fortitude partial; [B]Spell Resistance[/B] yes Description The area of this spell is covered in chilling frost, dealing 2d6 points of cold damage to all creatures within it. Creatures that the spell initially damages must succeed at a Fortitude save or become staggered for 1 round. The area remains chilled for the spell's duration. Any creature that starts your turn within the spell's area takes 1d6 points of cold damage (Fortitude saving throw for half) but does not become staggered even on a failed saving throw.[/sblock] [sblock=5e]FROST FALL [I]2nd-level evocation[/I] [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 action [B]Range [/B]60 ft [B]Component [/B]V, S [B]Duration [/B]1 minute A 5 ft radius area is covered in chilling frost, dealing 2d6 points of cold damage to all creatures within it. Creatures that the spell initially damages must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, they have disadvantage on their attack rolls until the end of their next turn. The area remains chilled for the spell's duration. Any creature that starts your turn within the spell's area takes 1d6 points of cold damage (Constitution saving throw for half) but does not become staggered even on a failed saving throw. [B]At Higher Levels[/B] When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 2nd.[/sblock] 3rd Level Frosthammer [sblock=PF][I][U]Frosthammer[/U][/I] [B]School [/B]evocation [cold]; [B]Level [/B]antipaladin 3, cleric 3, inquisitor 3, ranger 3 Casting [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 standard action [B]Components [/B]V, S, DF Effect [B]Range [/B]Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level) [B]Targets [/B]one creature [B]Duration [/B]instantaneous [B]Saving Throw[/B] none; [B]Spell Resistance[/B] yes Description You create a warhammer of magically hardened ice and send it hurling toward the target. You must succeed at a ranged touch attack to strike the target. If hit, the target takes 1d8 points of damage per 2 caster levels you possess (maximum 5d8); half this damage is bludgeoning damage, half is cold damage. The frosthammer counts as having a +1 enhancement bonus for the purpose of bypassing DR. If the target takes any bludgeoning damage from the hammer, you may attempt a trip combat maneuver check against that target, except you may use your caster level instead of your BAB and your spellcasting ability modifier (Wisdom for clerics, and so on) instead of your Strength modifier.[/sblock] [sblock=5e]FROSTHAMMER [I]3rd-level evocation[/I] [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 action [B]Range [/B]120 ft [B]Components [/B]V, S [B]Duration [/B]instantaneous You create a warhammer of magically hardened ice and send it hurling toward a creature. Make a ranged spell attack. On a hit, you deal 1d4 cold damage and 1d4 bludgeoning damage. The creature must also make a Strength saving throw. On a failure, it is knocked prone. [B]At Higher Levels[/B] When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, both the cold damage and bludgeoning damage increase by 1d4 for each slot level above 3rd.[/sblock] Ice Spear [sblock=PF][I][U]Ice Spears[/U][/I] [B]School [/B]conjuration [cold]; [B]Level [/B]druid 3, sorcerer/wizard 3, witch 3 Casting [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 standard action [B]Components [/B]V, S, M (a small stalagmite-shaped crystal) Effect [B]Range [/B]close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) [B]Effect [/B]1 ice spear/4 levels [B]Duration [/B]instantaneous [B]Saving Throw[/B] Reflex half and see below; [B]Spell Resistance[/B] no Description Favored by the spellcasters of Irrisen, this potent spell can disrupt spellcasters, topple enemies, and break even seemingly unstoppable charges. One or more giant spears of ice lance up out of the ground. Each stalagmite-like icicle affects a 5-foot square and tapers to a height of 10 feet. You may cause a number of ice spears equal to one spear for every 4 caster levels you possess to burst from the ground. A creature that occupies a square from which a spear extends (or that is within 10 feet of the ground below) takes 2d6 points of piercing damage and 2d6 points of cold damage per square-creatures that take up more than 1 square can be hit by multiple spears if your caster level is high enough. The explosive growth can also trip foes. When the spears erupt from the ground, they attempt a combat maneuver check to trip any targets that take damage from the spears, with a total bonus equal to your caster level plus your Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier, whichever is highest. Each additional ice spear beyond the first that strikes a single foe grants a +10 bonus on this combat maneuver check. If the check is successful, the ice spears knock the foe prone. A successful Reflex save halves the damage and prevents the trip attempt. If you cast this spell upon an area covered with ice or snow, such as a glacier, frozen lake, or snow-covered field, the spears strike with additional force. Saves against the effect take a -2 penalty, and the spell effect gains a +4 bonus on the combat maneuver check to trip foes. Ice spears created by this spell remain after they do their damage. They melt as normal depending on the surrounding environment. They no longer damage foes in their square, but can provide cover. An ice spear has hardness 5 and 30 hit points.[/sblock] [sblock=5e]ICE SPEAR [I]3rd-level conjuration[/I] [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 action [B]Range [/B]60 ft [B]Components [/B]V, S, M (a small stalagmite-shaped crystal) [B]Duration [/B]instantaneous A giant spear of ice lances up out of the ground.

A creature that occupies the square or is less than 10 feet above the ground below from which the spear extends takes 2d6 points of piercing damage and 2d6 points of cold damage The explosive growth can also trip foes. When the spears erupt from the ground, the creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they are knocked prone. A successful save halves the damage and they are not knocked prone. If you cast this spell on an area covered with ice or snow, such as a glacier, frozen lake, or snow-covered field, the save is made at disadvantage.

Bits of snow and cold wind drift down from the orbiting comets, granting you a circumstance bonus equal to the number of comets on all saving throws against fire effects. The actual use for the comets, though, is to make vengeful strikes against foes who dare to target you with offensive spells. As an immediate action whenever you are affected by a spell cast by another creature, you can fire one of your vengeful comets as a bolt of icy retribution (provided the source of the offensive spell is within range of your vengeful comet, of course). The comet requires a ranged touch attack to hit. If it hits, a comet deals 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage and 3d6 points of cold damage to the target, plus an additional amount of cold damage equal to the level of the spell you are retaliating against. If the spell you're retaliating against had the fire descriptor, you may opt to fire two comets instead of one.[/sblock] [sblock=5e]VENGEFUL COMET [I]3rd-level evocation[/I] [B]Casting Time[/B] 1 action [B]Range [/B]300 ft [B]Components [/B]V, S [B]Duration [/B]Concentration, up to 1 minute This spell creates a miniature comet that orbits in the air above your head.

Whether or not the target saves, it takes 1 point of cold damage per caster level each round it is helpless or entangled in the ice.
