In practice that will never happen.ĬR 5 also has Salamanders for fire.

Thank you for your time.Only a jerk DM would give you an underpowered creature like a mephit. Does the quantity of fire, air, water or earth affect spell?.

Does upcasting the spell guarantee a 'better' Elemental?.Can we control the CR of the Elemental?.Does that imply that you can't summon a fire elemental from a torch or a water elemental from a puddle? For CR 7 elementals there are the Elemental Myrmidons from Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, which I'm uncertain about could be summoned since their flavor text makes it sounds more like they're created? And then I know of no CR 8 or 9 elementals that could be summoned.įinally, returning to the text of the spell, it says that the elemental appears 'appropriate to the area' So I wonder whether there's an unspoken restriction there? They give the example of: 'a fire elemental emerges from a bonfire, and an earth elemental rises up from the ground'. What about upcasting the spell? To my knowledge, the only CR 6 elementals there are is the Galeb Duhr and the Invisible Stalker. So, while we get to choose which element to summon from (fire, air, water, earth), I'm uncertain about what else we have power over? If a 5th level spell slot is expended for Conjure Elemental, are we then guaranteed to get a CR 5 elemental, or could the DM simply hit us with a CR 1/2 Mephit of the appropriate element?

Eight elementals of challenge rating 1/4 or lower. Four elementals of challenge rating 1/2 or lower. Two elementals of challenge rating 1 or lower. You choose one the following options for what appears: One elemental of challenge rating 2 or lower.
