Message: <blockquote data-quote="Legendweaver" data-source="post: 8455447" data-attributes="member: 6705414">Two (non-magic) AoE items I mentioned elsewhere:Blackpowder: For 140 gp, anyone (caster or no) can deal 3d6 force + 3d6 fire in a 30 ft. sphere, vs. 175 gp. via a 3rd level fireball spell scroll only a spellcaster can use. There's no cap on the max damage you can deal with black powder, but at least there's 1/r^2 falloff as the number of charges grows.Unstable Arcanum: You can create an arbitrarily large AoE for 120 gp per 2d10 force damage. Unlike black powder, though, damage grows linearly, so for example, for 1200 gp, anyone  (caster or no) can deal 20d10 force damage in a single action, and for 12,000 gp, you can deal 200d10 force damage (not a typo!) in a single action. This stuff has no weight, either, so there's really no limit to how much damage you can do...just don't get hit with a spell while you're carrying it! =D</blockquote>
