To help I role play making the save as getting around the ball of fire

Ooga booga

 I second that "Ooga Booga" and put in a "360 NOSCOPE"

If it can set the body on fire then yes

Can you hurt yourself when you get the one with the fireball spell.

If you are in the area of affect then you do take damage if that's what you mean

KYLEP,

Unless otherwise specified, any saving throw prompted by a spell uses the caster's spell save DC (8 + proficiency bonus + spellcasting ability modifier).

I hope you found this useful!

Ravager926,

If you have concerns about the legitimacy of the dice rollers on this site, rest assured that your rolls are not unlikely. The more dice rolled, the higher the chance of the outcome being close to the average. Think of it as a probability bell curve.

I hope you found this useful!

I was very new to this whole thing when I posted this, thank you Magiknight. I have come to find the sight having reliable rolls for the purposes of campaigns and the like =)

I'm sure that the bat guano is an old, old component. 

But it does feel like a kind of subtle dad joke. Because this spell does bats**t crazy damage. Heyoooooooooo

 i think its because bat guano has potassium nitrate which is explosive

Nah, the spell's components aren't used unless explicitly stated that it is used in the process.

Check: House rules.  It also depends. Is the hair a toupee?

lmao dude, if you wanna beat the bbeg in literally one round, just cast this at 9th level. Either he'll disintegrate into a pile of ash, or he'll lose so much health that he's no longer a large threat. You could alternatively cast this at like 5th level for all your spell slots, get all their legendary resistances out of the way, and then 9th level, because screw you DM, thought you could have a fun encounter at the climax of the game? Nah fam, taste 9th level abraca-f*ck-you! Alternatively, you could just cheese everything else that isn't the bbeg, take out all his drones with a few 3rd level spell slots, if he has any. In other words, this spell is the go-to for screwing the dm and his plans sideways, and because of its utility and all encompassing damage dealing, it nearly can't be beat; not to mention that it levels incredibly well, because it starts out at low level already, so having 14d6 ready and able to be cast at end-game is amazing.

this is broken

I have used this before, it's pretty nice

This should be added to the Wildfire Druid spell list, since the subclass centers around dealing fire damage and this would help the class out in later levels.

Is blight essentially better than fireball? It does way more damage at higher spell slots (as 8d8 is better than 9d6), but as a wizard necromancer, would more damage and grim harvest be better than 120 feet more range, area damage, and ignition of flammable objects?

 Nothing is better than fireball, theres just fireball

just fireball

just fireball

just fireball

just fireball

just fireball

just fireball

 One could argue that Wish is better, but yeah, fireball is amazing.

 One could argue that meteor storm is better but…

We played D&D and one of us is a sorcerer with fireball. Can it burn down an entire damn forest?

Can you lob a fireball, or does it have to go straight at the target?  ie:  lob a fireball over the wall of a fort to hit creatures on the other side.

A Large or smaller creature hit by a net is restrained until it is freed. A net has no effect on creatures that are formless, or creatures that are Huge or larger. A creature can use its action to make a DC 10 Strength check, freeing itself or another creature within its reach on a success. Dealing 5 slashing damage to the net (AC 10) also frees the creature without harming it, ending the effect and destroying the net.

So, if they've got a Net on them, Fireball won't destroy the Net, because it isn't slashing damage? Sweet!

Hey guys! They said the net should survive the magma from the volcano!

 This should be interesting: please explain how massive uncontrolled explosions are useful in the controlled burning of wilderness to revitalize the land?

A bright streak flashes from your pointing finger to a point you choose within range and then blossoms with a low roar into an explosion of flame.

Mentions nothing about line of sight.
