Agreed. I'm constantly wondering what the hell should I do with my wizard in minor fights that doesn't fuck up my melee characters. If I use Fire Bolt or Ray of Frost, my own frontline starts burning or falls down. Not at all how those cantrips work in 5th ed.

Also:
Quote
A missile from Gale missed Barton.
Barton received Condition: Burning.
Barton was hit for 4 Fire damage.
Barton burned to ashes.


Gale rolled a natural 1 (a critical miss) on a Fire Bolt cantrip, and... killed his target? Riiiight.
