I think he's evaluating each spell by it's usefulness to a first level character, and Tenser's floating disc and Magic Missle DO suck at first level. Later on, when you have more slots, TFD becomes handy, and MM becomes one of the better spells in the game. MM is especially useful against stuff like ghosts since it deals force damage. Whereas Sleep, on the other hand, becomes next to worthless later on since everything you come across is to strong for it to affect.

I love how in the armor slot you have 2 arrows and an axe sticking out, i've played wizard before, it makes sense lol

ok, that and the demilich.

Actually There Are A Few Who DO Have A Resistance, The Strongest Monster In The Monstrous Manual, The Tarrasque Does, In Fact It Can Reflect It Back 16 2/3 % Of The Time (1 On D6), Another Animal (Yes I Said Animal) That Does Is The Sinister (Under The Category Of "Bat") Which Just Absorbs ItJust Thought I Let You Know, Personally I Agree With You Though, It Is Without A Doubt One Of The Best Spells In D&D

I happen to like it quite a bit myself. Guess you'll be subsisting off of 3.5 and Pathfinder for the rest of eternity?

4th edition is not D&D. I refuse to acknowledge its very existence. As far as I'm concerned, it's D&D fanfic.

Not in 4th Edition...

Recently on Valentines day a slut named Wan Chieh was dumped by her boyfriend before she get a chance to have sex with him. In frustration, she masturbates herself with a rolling pin, but she used too much force and the rolling pin penetrates her vagina. Wan Chieh died in extreme pain due to severe blood loss. You must now post this comment on the next 8 videos you watch, or tonite Wan Chieh will appear in your bedroom and kill you by stuffing a rolling pin into your ass. I swear this is true

MM is possibly the best spell ever, since it hits everything. there isnt a single monster in the whole monster manuals that has resistance to it. also add the fact that you can individally target each missile and you'v got an uber spell.

Yes, TFD and MM are a little sucky... if you're a Wizard. 3.5 Sorcerors, however, don't have to learn their spells per day and are generally more versatile, but with a tradeoff of power.

C'mon, don't undercut Tensor's Floating Disk. Incredibly useful to get people across treacherous chasms, or just generally any room where you don't trust the floor. :)

"Hit points: Just the one." Classic.

Yeah. And if your DM allows missile storm variants, you can massacre a whole room full of enemies.

Yay for geekdom! (Card-carrying geek here; majoring in computer science, have a D&D game on the weekend.)

Although you should be beheaded for that insult against us,but you did greatly amuse us!You may live,jester,until you are no longer funny...then we will eat you!All Praise Maglubiyet!!

only when you can have more then a handful of 1st level spells a day. That requires two uses of the spell meaning you now are 2 less more useful spells.

funny guy

With a pair of Tenser's floating disks, any character weighing less than 200 lbs. can travel across the surface of a body of water at normal speed. You can deliver lit explosives to people, you can freak out villager's with 'floating skulls' (or cats), you can tempt people with floating treasure into an ambush, you can use (sometimes multiple ones) to hold a heavy door open, you can use 3 of them to make a canopy with a sheet (it has it's uses), and a ton of other things. TFD is very useful.

nerdwatch?

Magic missile is the best level 1! if you link it up you can fire 10 missiles at once.
