My players also thought this spell was very good, but during play they quickly realized that it was not nearly as good in practice as on paper. First of all, 1d8 damage is not enough to kill anything except perhaps the weakest of monsters. Secondly, stunning while very useful only lasts 1 rd and does not compare to being held (which equals to helpless). Thirdly, the spell is practically useless in a situation where you prefer to keep your pressence hidden. There are much more effective spells to prepare for priests (like e.g. silence 15 ft radius).On a side note, since it is a sonic attack the bard could use his or her counter song ability for an incredibly good save.</blockquote>
