Make one of two changes:1. Have it affect more than a single target potentially, like a 15' cone. OR2. Have the duration be 1 minute with repeated saves so the lion isn't roaring each round...IMO either of those two changes would make it worth using possibly. As it stands, I think 9/10 times the lion is better off attacking.Sorry for any confusion... I can be weaselly at times. <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=";)" />  (As I generally don't like the direction WotC continues to take D&D.)Honestly, I can't tell you. I am just going off of the limited exposure I've had to 2024 when I bother to look at it. I'm not embracing it in anyway yet I can see. Much of the changes that I would embrace are already house-rules or close enough to them or something groups have been doing for years anyway and it just feels like WotC is finally getting on board.Your point in the OP about gaining the temp HP and then dropping concentration is what lends itself to a power up. Basically, it is a 4th level spell to give a PC a temp 157 hp... which is extremely impressive IMO.</blockquote>
