I don't really know d&d well, but I just looked up the spell and I think it says you can transform "any number of willing creatures". So the DM could make an argument about whether insects had the intelligence to even qualify as being able to be "willing" for that.

On the other hand, I am a big fan of Operation Dumbo Drop Multistrike

Another problem might be that animal shapes only has a range of 30 ft

30 ft range, requires willing creatures, targets can become large or smaller (elephants are huge)...

Brown Bear Barrage.

Or Giant Scorpion Tsunami if you want maximum pants-shitting potential.

(I could only find one CR4 large beast, the giant coral snake from Curse of Strahd, but no good spell title came to mind.)

My book doesn't have stats for a fuck horse, did they make an updated Book of Erotic Fantasy (don't answer that)

[–] Droechai@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

How could such a bad book get so much notoriety and not getting rereleases for all editions?

Pachyderm MIRV?

And it's an 8th level spell, which I think is close to the pinnacle of what a spellcaster can achieve in Dungeons and Dragons.

Depends on the edition. If Epic Magic is in play, 9th level spells are just the beginning. However, it gets stupidly easy to kill yourself by casting something that you really shouldn't have tried to cast.
