Jason - Inconsistencies b.n Spell Lists and Spell Descriptions.

Liberty's Edge

Given my anal retentive nature, I am walking through all the spell lists and spell descriptions to build my own spell lists. While I have come across more than a handful of glaring inconsistencies up to this point, I have not made record of them (but for in my personal spell list). My latest is with Flaming Sphere. Beta's Spell List says 2d6 Damage. Beta's Spell Description says 3d6 Damage. I would be more than happy to share with you my spell list upon completion, if you'd like. (I'm through Bard, Cleric, and Paladin and am Completing Druid, Ranger, and Sorcerer/Wizard as we speak.)

Liberty's Edge

Animal Growth:

Beta: 1 Animal/CL doubles in size.

BUT

Desc: 1 Animal gains +1 Sz. Category.

I.e., only 1 animal by the description, but more than 1 by the spell list.

Liberty's Edge

Sunburst:

Spell List = Blinds all within 10 ft., deals 6d6 damage.

Description = 80 ft radius burst. (Blinds and 6d6 damage.)

Acid Splash:

Spell List = Listed.

Description = Is not listed.

Liberty's Edge

Chain Lightning.

Just a description typo. Casting Time = 1 standard actio

Liberty's Edge

Well, Acid Splash is obviously a mistake, but I thought it was standard that Description trumps List?

Liberty's Edge

Yeah. I figure description trumps list. But it'd still be nice to have an accurate list.


Thanks for the listings, Saurstalk. Posts like these are extremely helpful!
