This is a really terrific addition to my library of spells, especially when I have storm sorcerers, elementalist shamans, and others who want to expand their repetoire of spells. These new spells feel well balanced and add plenty of variety to what can sometimes feel like slim pickings for elemental specialists.

Exactly what it says on the tin, a large amount of both offensive and utility spells based on the elemental damage types in D&D. The variety is the biggest draw.

Overall, the creativity on display here is absolutely astounding. Very useful for helping grant PCs (and nefarious NPCs) a wide range of offense that just isn't present in the base game. The balance of "is this spell too strong" against "should I use this huge AoE my allies might be in?" is very fun to deal with.

Suggested classes for these spells will PROBABLY be ignored by more willful GMs, but I 100% support anyone willing to try them out, especially in high-level games.

As much as I love the spells in the Player's Handbook and Xanathar's Guide to Everything, let's be honest: Fire gets all the love, and there's a distinct lack of options for spellcasters wanting to focus on any other element. (My attemps to create an ice-themed wizard always end in frustration at the lack of higher-level spells that aren't walls of flame.) This is a fantastic solution (and, as a DM, one of the few lists of homebrew spells where all the spells were balanced enough that I'll allow them in my game, while still being cool as heck). For the non-pyromaniacs among you (and even for the fire-loving who want yet more fiery options) I absolutely recommend this.

A solid selection of Elemental themed spells that aren't just in the school of evocation. The thing I appreciate most is that this isn't just a collection of old spells updated, as far as I can tell these are all unique spells!

If you're looking for more spells to spice up your game, look no further! This is an incredibly inventive collection, boasting spells from schools of magic beyond just evocation. And there are some in here that can be used outside of combat, too! It's well worth adding to your collection, either as a DM or a player.

Really well written! I like how there's different styles of spells, be it touch or ranged spells. They all have some form of flair to them to suit different preferences in spell casting, or for the kind of flavor players might want to add to their spellpages.

These spells have character, and look like they make for great rp/character moments in batttle.

I've seen comments about the ranger not having spells, but these spells seem flexible enough that a DM can pick some that could be available for them. this is a nifty tool to add to my toolkit, and I'm very excited to try this out!

This is a very creative collection of spells! There are so many options for all spellcasting classes. I appreciate the amount of effort that went into crafting new and unique spells that do not behave exactly like existing spells in the game. A very enjoyable product!

These spells are inventive, brutal, and fun. They add a lot of bombastic damage in exciting ways, as well as a sprinkle of utility spells and some extraordinarily vicious 9th levels that both look like a great show for a PC--and a devastating tool for a DM. Even if you don't use the spells in full, they'll certainly give wicked ideas for enemies, traps, and assassination plots.

Bonus kudos for Backdraft for bringing a childhood fear to life, and for Stone Shackles of the Merciless King for being both terrifying in concept and rich in story potential.

The spells complied here are above all else, one thing: fun.

A lot of the time elemental spells feel very flat and don't have a good flavor about them, especially when they get above fifth level. DropTheDie has done it again, and I'm hoping he does possibly more spells in the future for other types! Necrotic, Radiant and Force damage spells would be amazing, from the flavor alone on spells like Cremation, featured here.

Absolutely wonderful bonus spells to supplement the existing spell list. A lot of these have some serious damage dealing, without being overpowered, and some of them have some incredible roleplay potential, which is something that I really look for, as a dungeon master. The level nine spells pack a serious wallop, and I think they're just incredibly well thought out and well created.

I think my all time favorite is the level nine earth spell... Just saying. Honestly that spell alone is worth the 14.99, and all the others are icing on the cake. Also, the thought and the flavor put into the required material components? Brilliant. Awe inspiring. Show stopping. Yes.

This is really just an incredible spell list. If you're super into elemental spells, then this is a must have. I'll be implementing this into my campaigns very soon... Oh my poor players.
