![]() ![]() There are some fun nonstandard options to look in to.Įlemental myrmidons, while technically are elementals are not summonable elementals. Thank you for your time.Most DM will give you your elemental of choice because it's less prone to abuse like the other conjure X spells. ![]() However, and this is where I get concerned, neither does it say that we "choose" which level of CR elemental we get, as the Conjure Minor Elementals implies: The first thing I notice is that we don't get to choose which elemental we get, unlike the Summon Greater Demon spells that lets us choose which type of demon we get. So obviously the spell conjures an elemental, however, I'm uncertain about various aspects of the spell. Quantity of element must fill the 10' cube, so if you want a Salamander or Fire elemental, no you can't use a torch, you need to build a bonfire first. You named some other options but don't overlook CR 9 Frost Salamander (from Mordenkainen's) with its five attacks and juicy AoE. DM is free to homebrew more powerful elementals, including by just upscaling the existing MM elementals. In practice that will never happen.ĬR 5 also has Salamanders for fire. Thank you for your time.Only a jerk DM would give you an underpowered creature like a mephit. Does the quantity of fire, air, water or earth affect spell?.Does upcasting the spell guarantee a "better" Elemental?.Can we control the CR of the Elemental?.Does that imply that you can't summon a fire elemental from a torch or a water elemental from a puddle? For CR 7 elementals there are the Elemental Myrmidons from Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, which I'm uncertain about could be summoned since their flavor text makes it sounds more like they're created? And then I know of no CR 8 or 9 elementals that could be summoned.įinally, returning to the text of the spell, it says that the elemental appears "appropriate to the area" So I wonder whether there's an unspoken restriction there? They give the example of: "a fire elemental emerges from a bonfire, and an earth elemental rises up from the ground". What about upcasting the spell? To my knowledge, the only CR 6 elementals there are is the Galeb Duhr and the Invisible Stalker. So, while we get to choose which element to summon from (fire, air, water, earth), I'm uncertain about what else we have power over? If a 5th level spell slot is expended for Conjure Elemental, are we then guaranteed to get a CR 5 elemental, or could the DM simply hit us with a CR 1/2 Mephit of the appropriate element? Eight elementals of challenge rating 1/4 or lower. Four elementals of challenge rating 1/2 or lower. ![]() Two elementals of challenge rating 1 or lower. (Of course, specific overrides the general - once a Wall of Stone has been in place for the full duration of the spell, "it becomes permanent and cannot be dispelled" - so always check the spell description).You choose one the following options for what appears: One elemental of challenge rating 2 or lower. Indeed, one way in which the caster could get rid of the uncontrolled elemental is to cast Dispel Magic on it.īy analogy, you can dispel a Wall of Stone, Wall of Force, or any other spell that creates something or transports something from somewhere else, while the spell is in effect. And but for the specific rider in the spell's description that the elemental continues to hang around, uncontrolled, if the caster's concentration is broken, the elemental would disappear if the caster's concentration was broken. ![]() The spell does not have the instantaneous effect of calling forth an elemental that then hangs around for some time it calls forth an elemental that hangs around for the spell's duration - the spell is still in effect. The duration of the Conjure Elemental spell is "Concentration, up to 1 hour". ![]()
