Damage[edit]

The spell is mostly good and neat, but it seems to me like this spell should deal in d10 damage instead of d12. The apparent drawback to make up for the above-average damage is the somewhat short range, but... let's consider the following:
If I remember right, psychic is easily one of the best damage types in the game. There are more than a few defensive effects that read along the lines of, "Resistance to all damage except psychic." Meanwhile the only SRD damage cantrip with d12s is poison spray, but that has a much shorter range and deals with the most common damage resistance/immunity in the Monster Manual. - Guy (talk) 16:12, 24 November 2017 (MST)

Agreed. This is an incredibly powerful damage-dealing cantrip, and it should be reduced to 1d10. Psychic damage is ridiculously powerful and rare in D&D, and, to my knowledge, only one other cantrip in the game deals psychic damage, that being vicious mockery. A d10 is a lot more reasonable to me. --MarshDASavage (talk) 10:25, 21 April 2021 (MDT)
