[QUOTE="DND_Reborn, post: 8870297, member: 6987520"] Yeah, I noted the idea of [I]fireball[/I] and [I]lightning bolt[/I] in my first post. Although DBF is 12d6, it can get as high as 21d6, and frankly it is on the low-end of 7th level spells as far as damage goes. Especially when you remember the maximum damage is capped by one spell, so you aren't really doing 16d6 even, you are doing 16d6 with a max of 48 (max of 8d6). Such actual 7th level spells won't have the max 48 cap, but often due a bit less damage. However, their AoE is larger, in some cases much larger. However, I think if it is really a concern there are easy ways to deal with it: 1. You cannot duplicate spells. 2. You cannot do two AoE spells. 3. You cannot overlap AoE spells. Just off the top of my head... 🤷♂️ [/QUOTE]
