WHY IS THERE A NON-EXPLODING FIREBALL SPELL?! D:<<<<<

That ruins the whole point.

<Wizard> I'm gonna cast Fireball at the tall one!
<Everyone> Wait! No!
<Me> The tall one? You mean the one near the barrels of oil?
<Wizard> Oh shi-
<Warrior> Reflex save to make a blast shield by turning the table over! D:

Yeah. She stopped using the spell in closed spaces after that...

Fireballs don't generally have any actual force behind them. As such, no fireball technically explodes. It just blooms.

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piƱa coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

Well it has been awhile since I played D&D. Didn't they have some sort of boom in 2.0? Or just splash damage?

Exploding fireball is just a normal fireball with Energy Addmixture used to throw in some sonic damage. Other variants include adding in force instead.

Regular fireballs mostly ignite the air. Lots of "fwhoosh", but not much "Boom" for your buck. No real knockback at all.

Gordita plus lime Mountain Dew actually makes for some impressive fake Northern Lights.

Not that I've been doing that, of course. Especally not last weekend.

And honestly guys, if I need food on the go I use the Taco Bell drive-through. I get to freak out the guy at the window, it tastes better than raw goose (though not by much), and I still get the "afterburner" effect. Not that that last one is a good thing...

This is also an example of why it's a good thing elephants and rhinos cannot fly...

Elephants with wings have a truly insane wingspan. Only way to get them airborne in the first place it to chase them off the side of a high cliff. Big Deth refuses to help with that these days due to the high chance of a winged elephant getting it's "winged animal" instincts scrambled and mistaking him for either a big shiny automobile or, worse, a statue.

Rhinos with wings are similar, but more ornery and they still get their horns stuck in tree trunks. As it turns out, however, Rhinos are (no pun intended) rather peacockish about showing off their plumage. Maybe the Rhino's infamously bad temper is a result of not being able to flaunt anything.

In more mechanical terms, Rhinos make better catapult fodder as their semi-armor-plated hides keep in the gore when they land. Elephants splash.

Turtles, by the way, are extremely vengeful creatures when given wings. See...turtles fear birds because some birds will snatch them up, fly high into the air, and drop them onto rocks below.

A turtle with wings, however, will fly themself high into the air, divebomb an unsuspecting bird, and pull into their shell at the last moment. You can imagine how startled eagles and condors are when a three pound turtle moving at around 50mph collides with them in mid-air.

In conclusion: Turtles are sadistic little bastards who probably weren't given wings for a reason.
