Using the asteroid impact calculator at https://apps.science.purdue.edu/eaps/crater/cgi/crater_c.cgi, a crater of this size is equal to approximately 7 kilotonnes, which is light tactical nuclear weapon level. Large enough to vaporise city blocks, refrigerators, and any rogues evading into said refrigerators
oh but it doesn't work if you're inside apparently
You have to see the ~~sky~~ comet to manipulate the comet, isn't that right? You can't just have wizards willy-nilly affecting matter that they can't perceive!
And don't even think about using windows! The devil's doorways, they are
Makes sense. Who's gonna guide the comet down, imaginary sky friends?
The description says it hits the ground, so all you have to do is jump at the exact right time.
This guy plays Monster Hunter.
You can't dodge all the damage with most builds, but the damage is actually spread out over a short duration and you can use the i-frames in dodge to negate some of it.
Fast rolling helps.
It clearly states you still take damage if you pass, an almost certainly fatal amount. Basically your character hides in a fridge or something like Indiana Jones.
Improved Evasion. You take no damage if successful, and 50% on a failed DEX check. Utterly broken, especially when the Wizard realizes that their pseudodragon familiar is why they can suddenly dodge better than the rogue, though I think the pseudodragon was actually casting dimension door or something.
Hol'up. What's this meta?
That's how it worked in 3.0/3.5, not sure if that holds true in 5th e.
Ah, the golden era 🤘🏼🌈

This is the only thing I know about this game and I cannot wait for it to come out
Is it a real speed comet or an anime speed comet ?
What is a comet that can only deal up to 300 damage. Laughable.
Honestly, a pretty good answer is that if the lower damage bound is 30, the "comet" just isn't that big really.
Lower bound is actually 15 on successful saving throw.
I've never seen a PC with more than 200hp
Anime dodge and hang in the air for 35 seconds. Ez
I-frames obviously
Just have to dodge roll at the right time. Easy.
Don't forget that rogues get that perk (level 10 I think?) where they always get half damage whenever it calls for a DEX save and zero damage if they succeed
It's like jumping out of a car at highway speeds vs. jumping out of a car at highway speeds, tucking, and rolling. Either way, you'll be seriously hurt or killed, but one way is a little more likely to seriously hurt you and a little less likely to kill you than the other.
Also it's a world where one bardy boi singing real good has significant real life effects.
Why shouldn't someone be so good at dodging that they can evade half of the damage an explosion does?
Probably to hide under a desk... I wonder if bringing your own gives you advantage on the roll?
This is leaving out that a mile away from an impact that creates a 50-foot crater is in no way safe. Anyone know someone who could do the math on this?
Did it in a top level comment. Not sure how to link to it in an instance-independent manner
That calculator is going to provide me with hours of ghoulish fun, thanks!
