But that means you have to find alternative uses to make it still as useful as a 9th-level spell should be. But if you're still restricted to such short time, there are much fewer alternative uses compared to having e.g. a couple of minutes. 12 seconds meaning 2 actions is really miserably short for almost any creative plan.That's mainly my critique point: nerfing the main combat usage is ok, but they should have then thought of compensating it in another way, and IMO increasing the length significantly would have worked.</blockquote>
