[QUOTE="Technik4, post: 1004335, member: 7211"] That sounds more like force missile. Don't forget, you get a lot more than 1 chance at 2d6 with Flaming Sphere. A crafty wizard of mine used it for a very long time (After getting Wiz3 he multid to Rogue for 3 levels...). The only problem was, we misread the rule and always treated it as "2d6 Reflex for Half damage". You can move it after you cast it, so for a move-equivelent you can cast a spell and move the Flaming Sphere in the same round. I would often cast flaming sphere first, then next round move the flaming sphere and cast magic missile, then on the 3rd round (last round of sphere for a Wiz3) cast another Flaming Sphere and move the other one. 1st Round - 2d6 fire 2nd Round - 2d6 fire + 2d4+2 MM 3rd Round - 4d6 fire It was great damage and I didn't even use haste! Your force sphere is so good that you don't even need to cast a second one, 2 move-equivs are twice as powerful. If you want to do it like that, I would make it so you can use it 1/round as a move equivelent. If you want to move it more, you have to use your iterative attacks to get more "attacks", after all you are flinging the sphere, not just directing it. Technik [/QUOTE]
