In my games it has huge impact.Fireball is a 3rd level spell and scales just as "poorly" as all spells in 5e do - a spell that scales does less than a spell that is that level by default.Meteor Swarm is incredibly overpowered. Average damage for spells cast at 9th level by level:1st 432nd 623rd 774th 795th 856th 927th 958th 130Meteor Swarm does (~363) even when I reduce the actual damage from 40d6 to 30d6.It doesn't fall into line for a 3rd level spell. By my calculations it does 36% more damage than the average 3rd level spell or equivalent to a 4th level spell.</blockquote>
