It only really affects some cantrips and scorching ray.ġ.) Grim Touch is really better than some people think. I might end up lowering frostbite and moving some other things around based on being too situational.Īs a side note, I don't think wand of the warmage is worth an attune slot unless you don't have any other options. I'm reconsidering how I rate these cantrips in general, though thanks to you bringing this up. I agree that frostbite is probably not as good as some of your other cantrip choices in many situations, but it could be helpful vs things like rogues that rely on one big attack rather than a multi attack and creatures with high AC and low con. Hold Person is useless vs the hydra too, but its still a great spell. Part of my ratings assume that you use the right attack at the right time. As you said, disadvantage on one attack out of its multi attack is pretty useless anyway. It is easier to hit with an attack, and if you have to use a cantrip vs a hydra, i wouldn't use frostbite.
WIZARDRY 8 GUIDE MOD
I totally forgot to add the CON mod into my math, which defeats the whole purpose haha.īut, yea for high CON monsters, you are right. The only exception I would make to this is chill touch, which, when facing enemies with healing and regeneration, is really solid.Īh you are right. If you are facing a purple worm and relying on cantrips, you are going to have a bad time. They are just there if you can't/don't want to use better spells for some reason. It, along with your other damage cantrips, are pretty poor spells. What's more, if you have potent cantrip, your expected damage goes up a little bit too.īut, yeah, in general you don't want to be relying on something like frostbite. so despite the hydra's very high con, its still easier to hit CON than AC. That means the hydra has to roll 15+ on vs your con save and you have to roll a 7+ to hit with an attack. By level 8 you should have a DC of like 16 and an attack bonus of around +8. Take a hydra for example, CR8, 20 con but no proficiency, 15AC. There are plenty of low con monsters at higher levels, and even most monsters with high con scores don't have save proficiency. The fact that frostbite is a con save isn't necessarily a bad thing. I've rated most the damage cantrips blue because you should probably have 1 or 2 of them, but they are all pretty much equally unimpressive. There's no eldritch blast here pretty much all of your damage cantrips are garbage =). You are correct, as you level frostbite is a lot less impressive, but the same goes for all of your damage cantrips.
