I'm actually blanking on the third one.  Might have been 2 campaigns.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />My point being, it was VERY player dependent.  I've since rotated out a bunch of different players who I've now played with for the past twoish years, and all those problems have vanished.  We did a full Phandelver-Shattered Obelisk campaign and now halfway through Out of the Abyss and it's been a total non-issue.  So, I totally understand people who can't understand why it might be a problem.  If you've never had players who really tried their best to abuse the spell in every way possible, then, sure, no worries, it's not a problem.  It's a lot like the linear fighter/quadratic wizard thing in 3ed.  My groups never played full casters back then.  No one wanted to, so, I never saw the issue.  Until such time as one of the players brought in a high level caster and proceeded to dominate the entire game.  Once you see it in action, it's very hard not to see it.</blockquote>
