[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 9776434, member: 6716779"] The math supports 3.5 fireball being better. Your argued is subjective. Control spells wreck house in 5E as well. At a lot of levels the odds of flunking them are similar to 3.5. Im not realky gonna use fireball much in 5E vs control spelks even if playing optimally. Most peopke are casuals. They're not going to play optimally. 3.6 fireball is better then is it not? Powergamers shouldn't use fireball either edition or at least not that often. 3.5 hit points are about half 5E. The worst 3E fireball is better than 5E one mathematically speaking? 5E ones not really worth upcasting. 3.5 one mean metanagic or free metamagic. 5th level slot we are looking at 15d6 damage vs 10d6 in an edition with half the hit points. That's a 30d6 fireball comparatively, 25-28 if you want to start nitpicking it. 8d6 looks impressive. A 5E orc can survive average damage if they make their save. That's a basic orc lol. 5d6 3.5 basic one orcs dead no ifs no buts average roll. [/QUOTE]
