In Summary, I'm curious as to what people think.Sorcerers are defined thematically by their subclass, and they’re one of veryįew classes who decide their subclass at first level. 1/4 of the cost that it would normally take for a wizard to use those spells. But with a spell gems, 90,000-270,000 GP per year is an immensely small amount using a Spell Gem. 17th Level wizards could do this with 540 CR 5-7 Devils, also able to intersperse a small amount of CR 8 or 9 Devils for a higher cost. Each of those chain devils could animate up to Four Chains additionally, and this army could be maintained permanately without concentration, obeying the wizard's commands.įor those confused-devils summoned by Infernal Calling last several rounds (along with a few other summoning spells such as Summon Greater Demon or Conjure Elementals/Fey) before dissapearing after breaking concentration, so it is possible to break your concentration on Infernal Calling, but extend the duration with *Planar Binding-*binding a devil to you without concentration. The 5th level Spell Infernal Calling could be stored in a Jade Spell Gem, and it normally costs a 9th level or suitably higher wizard (or warlock) 999 GP+(1,000 GP) to summon a Devil of CR 5-9 or less, with a Spell Gem, the summoning could be done for free, and Planar Binding could be cast on a CR 5-9 Devil as a 8th or 9th level spell, (with durations 180 Days and 365 Days respectively by a 15th or 17th level wizard) allowing a 15th level wizard to spend 180 days to amass an army of 180 CR 7 Devils.Ī 17th level wizard being able to make all of these 180 Devils Chain Devils, for only 90,000 GP-a small Dragon's Horde. This spell has interesting combinations with other spells too. A druid could do this infinitely in their grove for free if they allotted 8 hours per day-and over the course of six years a druid doing this could summon thousands of CR 2 Awakened Trees.ĭespite the duration that keeps any Awakened Plants (from the awakened spell) charmed, the spell description states that they might remain friendly, and 17th level druids, (and Archdruids) could also cast the spell Geas as a 9th level spell every day to keep an infinite amount of Awakened Trees permenately charmed, but i'd imagine friendly awakened trees would want to help a Druid protect the forests anyways regardless of charisma checks. Archdruids, or 9th level Druids that have ammassed enough treasure, could get their hands on a Jade Spell Gem (perhaps with enough time and ~50,000 GP based on the rarity) and a Druid could use the spell gem to cast the 5th-level Spell Awaken for free-which normally costs 1,000 GP per summon. If that is the case, Spell Gems could have a lot of interesting applications. That's what the description seems to imply. ![]() Does this mean that spells that aren't abjuration school spells being stored and casted in a Spell Gem-require no GP worth of material components? If the spell belongs to the school of abjuration and requires material components that are consumed, you must provide them*, but they can be worth half as much as normal."* ![]() There's another entry that follows this: "Casting the spell must require either 1 action or 1 minute or longer, and the spell's level must be no higher than the gem's maximum. Doing so doesn't require any components and doesn't require attunement." In 5e sourcebooks, there are entries from Spell Gems (OOTA) that can store different level spells depending on the rarityĪn interesting feature of spell gems are that: "While holding the gem, you can cast the spell from it as an action.
