[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 8448710, member: 6696971"] 1) In mathematics, a hemisphere is a 3D shape with one curved side and [I]one flat circular side. The flat side is the floor.[/I] 2) If it didn’t have the flat side, how does the volume within the space stay comfortable and dry despite the conditions outside? a) If it was a sustained downpour for even a short duration, the floorless structure you propose would suffer groundwater seepage due to lack of a vapor/moisture barrier. [I]The area inside would cease to be dry.[/I] b) If it was significantly cold outside, the lack of floor-as-insulation would mean the area inside would [I]not be persistently comfortable as it would lose its temperature equilibrium.[/I] [HR][/HR] This is straight-forward deal. It must have a floor and it is therefore a stupendously powerful spell that can’t be Rock-Paper-Scissors interpreted in the kind of ways certain GMs want to in order to block a Long Rest. But this is 5e and you’re the GM! Do like the kid in Matrix (“there is no floor”), tell the rules to go eff themselves, and you won’t have to deal with the problem for your metaplot or for your players deploying this to recharge and screw up your prepped difficulty model because of their resource recharge control!
