    Grease isn’t a cantrip, and it stops being slippery when ignited. Nice try though, Mr. Clever Wizard Guy.

      The stuff produced by the Grease spell is not specified as flammable.

        It’s also not specified as not flammable!

        (Also, does it still use animal fat or something as a material component? That’s why we decided it was)

          It’s a totally fine ruling to say it’s flammable. I’m just saying the spell itself doesn’t say it is. I think treating it like Alchemist’s Fire once ignited is a good house rule. (1d4 damage at the start of each of its turns and can use an action to attempt to extinguish with a DC 10 Dexterity check.)

          Nothing wrong with that. It doesn’t specifically say it isn’t. Even if it did house rules are fine so long as everyone at the table enjoys it. I think Grease being flammable is fine. It’s a pretty minor change and it is how many people think it acts anyways.
