I took the first step on the road to recovery by putting most my domains up for sale. At $5000 they are very reasonably priced and someone is going to pick them up very soon… Right?

If I could figure out how to move all my favorites and playlists AND continue discovering obscure music from around the world with ease, I would replace Spotify.

I can’t think of another way for me to discover something like Indian Metal, all female Cuban acapella group, or power ambient deep in the middle of nowhere farmland NY. It’s not like those are going to be played on the radio. But I can type a random combo of letters and numbers into Spotify and start a radio based on the first band I don’t recognize. Let the discovery commence.

The slight DM pedant in me is torn about how you chose to interpret the size of the sphere.

There is absolutely no reason to not use volume as the thing being modified by the item EXCEPT as far as I am aware the RAW is that the fireball is measured by its radius.

By that reasoning the new fireball should have a radius of 200 ft. Which is obscenely large and also puts the caster within the blast radius.

If I remember correctly in older editions the fireball would also fill up rooms until it’s full VOLUME was achieved not necessarily just it’s radius.

Meaning a 20ft radius fireball would fill a 5ft x 5ft hallway/tunnel (weird size I know… easy math) for 1,340ft and the new 200ft radius (33,510,300 ft^3) fireball would fill the same hallway for… 1,340,412 FEET OR JUST SHORT OF 254 MILES OF TUNNEL!

If my players were stupid enough cat fireball on a magic enhancing object, personally, I’m using the later object and also multiplying the damage by 100.

Their new party can start by investigating the massive village size crater recently discovered by the locals.

The radius is the size of the sphere as measured from the center of the explosion.

Maybe this analogy helps.

You throw a ball at a wall and it bounces back towards you. If the ball reaches you or passes you then you die.

You can throw a ball (the fireball) 150ft. At the end of your throw it hits a wall (center of explosion). The ball bounces back towards you 92.832ft (explosion radius/edge of explosion). The ball is now 57.168 ft away from you. Ball did not reach you therefore you live.
