As for me, with my halfling sorceress, my best memories of counterspelling were actually to prevent our nemesis from fleeing once more. So no, you are clearly, 100% wrong here.Yes, of course, why don't you try to have slightly more varied games ? IMHO, the most dangerous spells in 5e are certainly not the damaging ones.You position relies clearly on very specific games and way of playing, as demonstrated on this thread since yesterday. If you take it in a less biased way, how many monsters have actual spellcasting in the books ? 5% ? 10% ? How many of these spells are converted ? Maybe 1-2 per monster (that's what we see in TWBtWL). And out of the fights were these monsters are present, in how many cases will the characters have abilities that matter, be ready and be willing to use them ? You're looking at 1% of the cases there, at most. In a full campaign level 1-10 with my sorceress (we are making a pause here before the second part), I probably used Counterspell 4-5 times at most. And again, I can't remember an instance in which I used it on a damaging spell, whereas I remember well the two times where I prevented Amelia from fleeing, once in the inn and once in her lair in the streets of Eberron.Again, HOW MANY ? How many characters are affected ?That has nothing to do with spells in general.There is no "and so on", this is the first example of your list, and the one that some people have been screaming about.There is no need for an errata. Play 5e in the spirit in which it was written, and you don't need an errata. And if your DM does his stuff as advised by the rules, your character would probably never noticed what happened. Or if he really thinks it's unfair, then he just has to label them "spells" in your game and it's done. Now, please, again, how is this anything else than extremely minor ?</blockquote>
