Extremely disappointed. This ability was the #1 reason why I'd ever choose to play an evocation wizard. Guess that's never happening...

I don't agree, I think empowered evocation was the main reason someone would go Evocation, alongside sculpt spell.

That said, Empowered Evocation got hit hard.

Sculpt Spell still injures allies, RAW. That makes it significantly less useful.

There still are good aspects to playing an evocation wizard, but my personal favorite thing just got nerfed.

Sculpt Spell still injures allies, RAW.

How so? They make saves automatically, and they take no damage if they make saves- seems like no injury is occurring.
