It is.
Of course. It became relevant when you startet to claim it is good at level 8 in a very unusual situation.
Strawman.
At level 1. Very likely.
At level 8. It doesn't have to.
Not at all. Someone recebtly explained in a video, how much impact a single creature added to a balanced encounter has. So if you kill one creature early, it has the opposite effect.
Isn't it ironic that you handpicked an unrealistic scenario and need to dismiss other spells just because...
of course it deals more damage if you compare the damage output against the turns the enemy has. If the enemy needs to skip a turn doing nothing, your whole party just got a free round of beating.
Or wait. In your scenario the enemy seems to do nothing anyway...
Yeah. It is "grovel" now. Different name for the same thing... wasn't that hard to translate...
Never said that. Never thought that. Do I really have to expain everything to you? Just for your information: your explanation was not needed. As everyone knwos this.
The rogue has less attacks. But go on shift the goalpost more. Was your unrealistic example anyway.
Funny. I never said that. I explicitely said bless is a good spell. Great at times. But it is not always the best use of resources (which is an action and a spell slot).
An attack or a cantrip at least uses no spell slot. And in your example the net worth of that slot was 10 average damage over 3 turns. Congrarulations.
So why are you trying to find unrealistic examples to prove something you don't think is true? Why do you argue if you agree with me?
