Like limit it to 4 attacks. That way it can still negate one fighter's worth of attacks, *but* things like Haste can sneak an attack by. - Specify *when* attacks are reflected. If its before the attack roll is made, then any attack, like punching the caster will be reflected no matter how pointless. If it is after the roll is made, then only the attacks that can hit are reflected. - Reduce the duration to 1 round / level. -> Then casters have to cast it during combat; meaning there is a chance to stop it. (Dispel, counter, disrupt, etc) Other wise theres no way this potentially deadly spell can be detected and stopped before it cripples the fighter with his vorpal weapon. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />EDIT:  - Also, as you said, it should be noted in the spell what this reflects; I don't think an assassin's death attack could be reflected. (He didn't study himself) I think it depends on "How" the attack is reflected; Is it just damage? Is it that the melee attack litterally bounces back and hits them? It looks solid otherwise. Reminds me of Old school stoneskin. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
