Uhβ¦counterspell?
Best spell in the game.
Edit: also for clerics iβd pick spirit guardians over everything.
My current wizard character didnβt take counterspell until the dm sent a wizard at us with it first. He had no one to blame but himself.
I have a house rule where a counter spelled counter spell is nullified but causes a roll on the wild magic table for both casters.
They need to think more creatively. Youβre now focused on countering the enemy caster, and the party might be more distracted helping you to clear out the threat.
This is the perfect opportunity to take advantage of, and put some nice pressure down.
Nah, the group where I play the caster who could take Counterspell has a fairly green DM and I just donβt want to stress him out more by thwarting his plans.
With a veteran DM? Boy I am fucking them every which way front, back and sideways with creatively misused utility spells.
Playing a druid currently and I couldnβt count the number of vile glares Iβve gotten from the DM as I utter βI cast Dispell Magicββ¦
Spore Druid and Call Lightning is absolutely amazing. A level 3+ spell that you can cast infinite times without expending further spell slots? Oh hell yes, please!
