  • Seventh level spells are usually available for players once they hit level 13, and this level of spell is chock-full of some really powerful stuff, some of which are better than ninth level spells. So this is where to go over some of the best seventh level spells that you can pick up in the game.

    Just as a reminder, plane shift requires a tuning fork worth at least 250 gp attuned to a particular plane of existence. This requirement was likely left broad to leave to DM discretion. In all campaigns I have been in, the DM required us to find, buy, or attune our own tuning fork before our party was able to shift to a new plane of existence.

      @artificerprime4154 Před 2 lety +4

      Yep. So if you want to do the Plane Shift trick of teleporting to anywhere on the Material Plane, you need two tuning forks: one attuned to the Material Plane and one attuned to the other plane you're using as a liminal space.

      This is what allows a DM to keep someone from abusing this spell. They can just never give you access to planar tuning forks of any kind. It's hard to tell a story if the characters can just yeet themselves out of the story.

      There are a lot of ways to cheese healing like this, especially at 20th level, with a couple being a lot more broken than 10hp per turn. One that comes to mind is moon druids shaping into earth elementals every turn as a bonus action for effectively 126 hit point regeneration.

      As a DM I would applaud your ingenuity and encourage you to continue to think outside of the box but would have to rule against both of these options.

    Have you ever thought about doing a top 10 spell combinations? Like for example: Flesh to stone combined with rock to mud? It's a diabolical combination with both spells being reversables ie; Turn someone to stone, turn their stone form to mud, wait a while for gravity to take its toll or maybe rearrange their mud face before turning their mud self back into rock and then their rock self back into flesh.
    Unless you have a DM that argues semantics like "Dude, flesh to stone and rock to mud don't work because one turns you to STONE while the other works on ROCK so it's not gonna work!".

    Fun fact: The spell with the longest casting time in the game currently is Hallow, which is 24 hours to cast (twice as long as Simulacrum). Also Simulacrum on its own is really powerful if you get the time to cast it, but Wish being able to copy Simulacrum makes the Simulacrum spell's existence even more potentially game-breaking.

    One method to escape Forcecage if you cannot teleport involves stuffing a portable hole into a bag of holding. And if you can cast Plane Shift, you now might actually have the upper hand against those that trapped you.
    For the price of one uncommon and one rare magic item, you have a sure-fire (albeit painful) escape from certain death.

    as I read the spell, only the box version prevents escape via gasseous form and the like. it also seems like the box version is the only one that prevents spells. otherwise they wouldn't bother saying how big the opening in the bars is for the cage version and making them different sizes. that's how I interpret Raw anyway.

    The spell Simulacrum has been around for decades and it's always been my understanding, that the copy has not only half hit points but is essentially only HALF the number of LEVELS of the original. So if you are a Wizard at Level 14 casting this on yourself, the duplicate will be Level 7. So no, you can't have the duplicates creating a small army of wizards with this, because they won't have access to the spell. They are also unable to memorize new spells, they only have the spells YOU had at the time of their creation.
    If WotC changed all that, I'm unaware of the changes.

    But what if you cast Simulacrum to create a copy of yourself, which then runs a shop in town or so? Is there a limitation concerning distance from the caster? Like, do you always have to be within 100 feet of your simulacrum? I don't think so, right? So, you could actually cast a Simulacrum to be useful OUTSIDE of combat.

    Likely, you can still pelt any creature inside the barred cage with spells & arrows, though attacking with disadvantage.
    Any low rolls hit the cage, rather than the creature inside the cage, dealing no damage or other ill effect.
    PS, any creature larger than ten feet tall or long is basically immune to the solid box version of this spell.
    Any creature larger than twenty feet tall or long is immune to the entire spell, being shunted out of its area.

    Mirage Arcane is probably one of the most op spells as it can one shot most encounters.
    While you probably can not change plains into mountains or create lava lake, you can make a cave, house, or simply lower the terrain.
    Now if you lower the terrain it's general shape is still the same but it is lowered sooo... If you cast it at the castle, town, enemy fortress and non of them realize it after 10 days all of them will be clipped to the ground and suffocate.
    And even if they dispel it they will just make them start suffocating faster.
    It is interesting that it is not stated that you can stop the spell and you might even need to use dispel to stop it if you would like to reverse changes faster. So you can not make changes for short time and then turn it off to harm them as it there is no mention of how to disable it.
    There is also problem with whole "general terrain remains the same" as it also states that that you can add structures. So could you use it to create catapults ballista's and use real wood and stone to shoot using them or create ravine around enemy and recast the spell so they would starve to death.
    It should be more specific what changes it can make as if you can make any terrain but not lave lake I could just make mountain on the brink of avalanche and hit enemy with it and then throw them of the cliff with it.

    I like Forcecage as much as the next guy, but Simulacrum is broken as hell. Even if we limit the use of Simulacrum to duplicating yourself, a 17th level wizard can have the newly-created simulacrum cast Simulacrum to duplicate the wizard again and again ad infinitum. Money is no object because you can pay 1500g to get 25000g by having one Simulacrum cast Wish without any long-term consequences. The spell is horribly designed and should be banned for power level reasons, not least because it's the default best thing you can use Wish on every day.
    Edit: a word

    • @agentchaos9332
      @agentchaos9332 Před 2 lety

      As you pointed out, the only way to cheese it that way is if you have access to Wish, to cast it instantly. Wish is what breaks the game in that situation. At which point you're at or approaching level 20 and there's plenty of overpowered things you can do. Also a simulacrum of a simulacrum will have a quarter of the originals hit points, so while yes you're getting access to spell slots and an extra turn, at level 17 there are plenty of enemies that can 1 shot it. So no it doesn't need to be " banned" when your DM can pretty easily kill your simulacrums in combat, and force you to keep making new ones if that's your strategy

      @@agentchaos9332 You’re repeatedly duplicating the original wizard, not duplicating the duplicates, so the quarter hp thing is nonsense. And while using Wish to avoid the 12 hour casting time is convenient if you have no downtime, it's not the real problem.

      Simulacrum can still be dispelled by Dispel Magic.

      @@1ntelligentDiscourse You can only have 1 simulacra at once. Lets not forget that DM can give BBEG and their minions some Counterspells to mess with partie's Counterspell, Heal, and Revifify.

    Regenerate would be a decent spell at level five. I would never waste a seventh level slot on it.
    As a healing spell it's pathetic. And if your front line goes down so frequently that you need this, it's time to adjust your parties strategy because whatever you're doing, it's not working. Maybe cast Forcecage on the big bad and your fighter won't burn through all of thier hp. Wack-a-mole isn't really a strategy that I plan for. Why would anyone??
