    The tracker elemental, couldn't you just summon it, and then ask it where the target is, and wipe out the need for 80% of divination magic?

    • @Insertfunnycomment
      @Insertfunnycomment 3 роки тому +17

      I wouldn't say 80% of divination magic, as you still can't see where the target is so once it moves you've lost it again unless you walk alongside the stalker. Also, you have to remember summoning an elemental is often extremely difficult and always very dangerous. (Conjuring invisible stalkers requires a 6th level spell slot, after all, and, as Runesmith said: "Imagine you're in bed, having the best dream in the world, and some old dude with a beard rips you out of bed, puts a sword in your hand, and tells you that your house is being invaded because you're awake right now). Also, you'd have to speak Auran. If you just want to know where a target is, it's sort of like hiring a batshit serial killer who doesn't speak english but can still understand you when you give it a name. The stalker is just as likely to kill you as he is the target, if you don't keep your cool.

    I think being an elemental is about being a creature native to those plains that can survive there like its moved beyond just being made of the element. I don't know how a magical snail formed there but I can imagine it in 3/4 of the planes - they eats rocks and gems and leaves a trail of glass, they resist fire- and there are real snails that basically live in volcanoes, and there are plenty of sea slugs and snails so they make sense in the water plane.

    Okay, on Flail Snails though; I gave my party, basically, a fetch quest to hunt a Flail Snail and bring it's shell back to the noble/collector that hired them UNHARMED. I also modded the flail snail so that after being hit with an attack, it had a reaction to go back into the shell, and then would screech upon exiting it on a later turn, potentially stunning everybody for a round so it could try to make its getaway (it only had this screech once per rest, like its scintillating shell ability) Unfortunately, the screech attracted an intrusion of Ankhegs from a nearby abandoned mine, forcing the party to protect the snail and overall just made for an interesting and nerve-racking encounter.

    My current campaign's setting is primarily the underdark because a group of desperate druids were tricked by a void Slaad in disguise as a primordial spirit into tapping into the elemental planes to become powerful enough to defeat an ancient Kraken that had emerged at the end of our last campaign.
    The ritual they performed actually ended up transforming each of them into one of the 4 elder elementals and ripped open a portal to Limbo where the Slaad could pour forth and begin planar devastation. The elder elementals now act as conduits keeping the portal open, compelled to remain in the 4 corners of the realm, far from each other, but not too far from the epicenter.

    Summon Elemental allows you to summon an Invisible Stalker. It knows where your target is and has an hour to get there and kill em. At 50ft/round, it can fly 5.68 miles in that hour. So you can just summon the thing, give it some asshats name and have an airtight alibi because you were literally miles away and you clearly have nothing to do with the noble being murdered by angry wind.
    As a bonus, the "lose concentration, it gets loose" clause has 0% chance of happening, as you are miles away from combat.

    Single handedly killed a Water Weird in the campaign im in with a non-combat support character by using the Create/Destroy Water spell to edit>undo the water in it's pot. This caused the rest of it's body to pretty much instantly evaporate.
    Might try the Shape Water cantrip next time to do something like freeze it over and see what happens.

    Man, I wanted to base my campaign around Elementals so much, and then when I sat down and looked through them... What a bunch of weird choices WotC made with these guys.

    • @FallenSanityG
      @FallenSanityG 3 роки тому

      @Ethan Morrill Respectful, and correct!
      I've had to go through and just completely reflavour so much stuff, and even just move stuff around. Like, if a fucking Flail Snail can be an Elemental, then I'm sorry, the FIRE HORSE can be an Elemental too. Same with the fucking Fire Dog for that matter. Firenewts, Giant Striders... But, no, the fucking Flail Snail.
