[QUOTE="ThePolarBear, post: 6932809, member: 6857451"] Things that are more useful but EK has access to too: Levitate - probably better save numbers/earlier access/short range so better suited for the fray than distance (other wizards comparison - this is going to be used a lot -) Counterspell(other "low" level spells) - Earlier access/better spellcasting check/short range/will take it anyway since spells are the bane Greater Invisibility - Better all around defense/higher con checks/EK lvl20 Polymorph - Not good to be used on oneself - losing access to all abilities will hurt - but helpful to save frontliner. Ek can have it too, but at lvl 20. Fire Shield/Stoneskin - Both great, Stoneskin is better than on other casters if self cast due to higher con checks Stone Shape - Last minute cover, pit under the enemy, difficult terrain... Every upscaled version over 4th level spell slot: EK can't do it. So mass hold person or things like that. Now in random order: Foresight/Shapechange and on a lesser scale True Polimorph/Last minute True sight, Mind Blank, Teleport on frontliners/Globe of invulnerability and Antimagic Shield covering frontliners without losing abilities to fight effectively/Eyebite?/Little houserule to mordekainen sword to be able to be used as an weapon, picked up and dropped as a bonus action, since imho the spell is very lacking?/Bigby Hand for cover - grapple - push - more damage. I'm sure i'm missing something obvious. I already aknowledged my error on Tremorsense before you posted. I have no idea where i asked you about Blindsight. I know what Blindsight is. I did not know what the blindifghting you told me the ranger had was. Other people already have answered for you, thanks. I never tought about Alert that way. But with the new errata you are 100% correct sir :D Ooooh thank you. I guess i'll just stop derailing the thread unilaterally :D It's strangely difficult. [/QUOTE]
