I guess if you wanted to play it that way, you could, but causing a wound to clot is something that you could do by applying pressure for a little bit.Calling down an angel is not as impressive as the fact that there's now an angel there, and they could have decided to do that on their own. Flame Strike is a much higher level spell than Fireball, and it only works on an enemy. Sure, having your enemy consumed in a pillar of flame is pretty flashy, but that's not anything you've done. It just happens, after you invoke your deity. Probably because your deity is real, and made it happen, but there's still some room for doubt.And as for Spiritual Hammer, the material component is traditionally a warhammer, which you throw at your opponent. You're not creating energy constructs out of magic, like a wizard does. Your amazing power is that this physical hammer you own takes on a life of its own and starts flying through the air. It's not supposed to be flashy. It's the absolute minimum amount of flash as required to get the necessary results.</blockquote>
