Should be Evocation or Conjuration. There's nothing universal about this spell.

 

[Crothian]

THis is maybe as high as a 4th level spell. It only does a d20 damage and then has a chance of something akin to a wand (okay, it's a rod now, but wand sounds better) of wonder happen.

And it's school needs to be changed.

 

[the Jester]

Yeah, I'd say it's more like 4th-5th level, prolly 4th; and I don't see any reason for it to be universal either.

 

[Ace]

I agree with the above posters about the school it is attached too. I would also suggest a new name, Chaos Ball comes to mind

Looks good , though it is still probably somewhere between a 4th and 5th level spell. It maybe needs something added to it to make it 5th. Nothing much mind you, just something small, such as reducing the casting time to 1 action.

Hmm, Spell Resistance: None is kinda unusual. I really wish people wouldn't use that for spells with a direct effect, it makes no sense. Its like a volcano, that fire resistance doesn't apply against.

becouse i really have no idea what it should be at that's why i posted the spell here to get ideas!

what if i made the damage 3d10+1 per caster level would that make it more of a 5th level spell?
