This is why I suggest every caster either has note cards for their spells or a tablet with their spells bookmarked.
It’s fireball. It’s just gonna be fireball. Just roll your 8d6.
Yeah, you make a personal spellbook. No PHB spellbook. That way you only have 4 or 5 pages to thumb through. If you can't devote that much personal time to the campaign, you can't devote that much time to the campaign.
Yeah, this is especially useful for classes that prepare their spells from a longer list, like wizards or clerics. I like to use revision card size notes for each spell, so then when we long rest, I can just rifle through them and physically take the ones I'm choosing to prepare. It is more faff to make the notes than for sorcerers or warlocks, who only have to prepare a few notes each time they level up, but it massively streamlines sessions
I don't give a shit about how large is the room
I cast Fireball, make it go boom!
This reminded me of a time our rogue fell into a pit trap that had a pair of mimics down there. The first turn it was clear the rogue was going to die without some help and nobody wanted to join them in the pit of dying. Me and the other sorc looked at each other, "hey rogue, you picked improved evasion right?", fireball o'clock
Did the rogue make it?
They did! Improved evasion is so OP we were way less of a threat than getting Eiffel towered by mimics
OwO
I'm trying to remember, mimics are intelligent, aren't they? I wonder how much of a campaign could be built, or even just a single night's session, around a person who is feeding people to (a) mimic(s) because they are in love with them. And then, depending on the group, you can get quite lurid or horrific with the details.
