      my first play through i used this spell like twice just from a scroll and i loved it when i had it. my second playthrough i made a druid, not even thinking about this spell. this spell made all the difficult fights i had my first playthrough just a cake walk.

        I honestly think this spell is too overpowered haha. when you clear the first ruins, you can cast it and cover almost the entire floor, and they just walk through it and tick for 7 every few steps.. instant win.

        But i LOOOVE casting it and then using Command to make people walk through it lol. So satisfying.

          This spell alone on lvl2 is enough to clear the entire goblin camp. Check video BG3 Level 2 spell vs entire goblin camp. Its completely imbalanced and strong

            I hate how inconsistent the wording is for this spell as opposed to other ones that produce difficult terrain.

                I've used cloud of daggers a lot and it's incredible, but this seems like a straight downgrade for damage dealing compared? Will enemies actually walk through this enough to deal enough damage, and is there are niche use for it like placing it on an archer and threatening it in melee to make the archer run away through the spikes?

                  I'm only in act 1 so far but this spell seems really ****ing good. You use it in a chokepoint and enemies either go through and get ****ed, or waste a ton of time going around it. Maybe im not far enough in the game yet but i haven't seen a single enemy that can jump past it entirely.

                    Spell is useless now don't bother with it. Either A.I will never cross it, or then it will just jump over it.

                      Does damage on initial cast. If you get moved while in the thorns you also take damage, tested with thorn whip and thunderwave (even though the animations show you flying through the air, you still take damage).

                        In early access this spell rocked. Mobs will walk through it if they're already in it (though they may jump over it), but even better, they will avoid walking through it entirely if possible, meaning you can easily kill them from range. They will sit at the edge and not even move, making them extra vulnerable to persistent AOE spells like cloud of daggers.

                          Strongly nerfed version of 5e where the effects are identical apart from damage that is double (2d4 per 1.5 meters). Perhaps to compensate for poor AI/limited opportunity to avoid such effects in the game?
