In a campaign, a character gained a suicide bomb, and the only way to defend was a wall of force or a Globe of Invulnerability, or death (We plan on cloning him a ton later, supposing he lives.) Chaos. But, I was wondering why someone would choose Globe of Invulnerability over Otiluke's Resilient Sphere in any scenario, besides maybe the Globe cant be moved.
The globe does nothing to block physical damage, but will cause any spell effects of the level stated and lower coming from the outside in the cease (spell effects going from the inside out are not blocked) so a creature inside the sphere can still cast spells
the resilient sphere blocks all damage and spells in both directions
technically by RAW the globe would not stop a physical explosion, but it would stop a magical one so long as it was from a spell of 5th level or lower. The resilient sphere would block both
