The original unearthed arcana had some wonderful and not powerful spells. I ported the health bar one to 5e. Basically gives the caster the ability to tell how many HP a creature has. Switch creature as a bonus.
@NautArch Probably better to just narrate the tedium. Let them be bored out of their minds trying to find the entrance such that they're happy for something, anything to happen... until they regret that in short order.
IIRC the thing that's important there is that there is more than one entrance that you can find to the tomb, so which one you locate and go through matters
@NautArch I think it was a 2nd level spell for a minute. No concentration. I'd make it concentration for a 1st level. I might have made it L1 with conc.
@GcL I think non-con actually is better. It's just a bonus action to find out something that many tables provide generalities on (like we usually say if a monster is bloodied at 50% HP)
@NautArch Mounts inside the dungeon? You keep your donkey train guarded at the entrance and use scroll of floating disc to transport out the 55,000 damned copper coins you find.
I do until there's actually 20k silver coins the players want and they're a two day march into a hostile demi-plane of the UnderdarkKyber
My joy is forcing choices with no clear good/bad metric. Also, usually saves me 5 minutes of talking whilst they talk among themselves. Sometimes I get verklempt.
@linksassin and anyone else who does homebrew analysis; would you mind taking a look at my analysis here and let me know if I missed something glaring? One of my players wants to play the class

A rectangular chest is filled to the brim with 1,000 unevenly piled gold coins, each weighing one third of an ounce. How big is that chest? Is there a formula I can use for routinely calculating the volume of a given quantity of coins?

@NautArch Yeah; like if they really wanted to choose Nano Evolution, I'd be much more accepting since it is less likely he will outshine the other characters. Idk; I'm closer to the "no it doesn't fit the setting" anyway.
It's standard Forgotten Realms, so it would take some gymnastics to make it make sense in the setting
@MikeQ I'll not be able to figure out my glitch until this weekend, in terms of pre stocking your summons. Will try to get an answer by Sunday Evening.
I have been playing a Bladesinger wizard in a fairly long running campaign, at least by my standards. There have been a lot of good moments but after my third attempt to make disintegrate work, I have realized something: everything worth using a big spell on probably has a good enough save that t...
