[QUOTE="Nzld, post: 2719614, member: 37407"] I didn't say that there is no middle ground, I said that there isn't necessarily a middle ground. The guidelines provided - though only guidelines - do represent the intended minimum levels required for an effect, based on how the spells in the book are created. The level of effect necessary to move quickly in any direction is base 15. You are introducing an arbitrary argument by saying you aren't moving quickly, but that you aren't moving slowly, either. In 5th Edition, it doesn't say base 15 to move at 40 MPH and base 10 to move less at a lesser speed... it says base 15 to move quickly, period. When you initially designed the spell you obviously felt that base 15 was the appropriate guideline... you only seek a lesser one now in order to keep the non-standard Duration without having to raise the spell level.
