It is intellectually dishonest in the extreme to pretend that the wording is different just because you don't like the effects - I don't like what wish and simulacrum do together, but that doesn't mean I should pretend that by the rules they don.If not specifically saying the player chooses means it's up to the DM or random for CWB, logic dictates that that is the case for meteor swarm (I'm not gonna run out of examples any times soon) as well. Therefore any way you designate CWB must be resolved should therefore be the way that spells like say wall of fire (which says you create a wall of fire within range, but doesn't specify that you choose where) is resolved.Most spells don't specifically say the player chooses the effects, fabricate doesn't specify you get to choose what you create any more than CWB specifies you choose what is summoned.It doesn't specifically say the player chooses the effects.Conjure woodland beings can summon 8 pixies, which is too strong.So Prestidigitation says you create one of them while Conjure Woodland Beings only says choose one and 8 Fey creatures could be 8 Sprites that are quite weak or 8 Pixies who Polymorph all the party members into Dinosaurs and wreck whatever comes by.Ok, so normally this is the part where I point out the obvious solution, but I'm gonna open it to the floor first. Eight fey creatures of challenge rating 1/4 or lower".Four fey creatures of challenge rating 1/2 or lower.Two fey creatures of challenge rating 1 or lower.One fey creature of challenge rating 2 or lower.And well Prestidigitation isn't that powerful.Īnd as a reminder Prestidigitation says you create one of the effects and Conjure Woodland Beings says "Choose one of the following options for what appears:

I ask this because this spell is super over powered.

The DM will often choose creatures that are appropriate for the campaign and that will be fun to introduce in a scene."Ok now you have been so VERY helpful and I will be able to show this to my DM and we can all understand it THX. The DM will often choose creatures that are appropriate for the campaign and that will be fun to introduce in a scene."Ī spellcaster can certainly express a preference for what creatures shows up, but it’s up to the DM to determine if they do. If you pick the second option, the DM chooses the two elementals that have a challenge rating of 1 or lower.Ī spellcaster can certainly express a preference for what creatures shows up, but it’s up to the DM to determine if they do. The design intent for options like these is that the spell-caster chooses one of them, and then the DM decides what creatures appear that fit the chosen option.
