Blast of flame

[VanillaPudding]

This spell is evocation in game and not conjuration as intended.

But is the description incorrect or is the spell incorrect?

Its a damaging fire spell.
Its smaller cousin, burning hands, is a transmutation spell.

Shouldn't it just be evocation in the description?

This spell's Conjuration because it was sourced from the Complete Arcane and Spell Compendium D&D books

I think there are good arguments for the EFU version being each of the three schools!

Conjuration...
   makes sense if we think of it as being similar to Mestil's Acid Breath, as another damage cone. Maybe even the flavor is similar but this is Fire Breathing instead of Acid Breathing

Transmutation...
   if it's intended to be Big Burning Hands, which is Transmutation in EFU and NWN (I think from 3.0 D&D before it was shifted to Evocation in 3.5 D&D, or it's just one of those NWNisms)

Evocation...
   works well with our assumptions on what is and isn't an evocation spell, since it's a big AOE energy damage spell, it "feels" like an evocation spell and matches up with others

Very old, but will be glad to change to whichever. Someone just needs to make the call (I really don't care).

[Easy To Remember]

Well it's definitely a self-serving opinion, but I like it as evocation. It's a balancing point for Azure Pyre mostly, but GSF Conjuration already provides so many strong tools that having this spell stay evocation keeps it as a tool for a blaster focused on fire to stubbornly burn things they generally wouldn't be able to, which seems Evoker-y.

Seconding evocation!
