a spell that deals damage over time, that lasts for 30 seconds but has a cooldown of 60 seconds, so that optimizing DPS becomes a nightmare
a spell that gives you gauge/resources/mana/etc... that allows you to extend your dps rotation a bit more, on a 180s cooldown, so that in order to deal optimal dps you must have a certain amount of uses of this ability every encounter
a spell that gives massive utility to a single target party member, such as invulnerability, full hp regen, guaranteed critical, etc... so that your class is desirable in a group for that ability alone, at the expense of every other class that doesn't have this ability
a spell whose only purpose is to spend gauge/resources/mana and all it does is deal slightly less damage than your normal dps spells, but can be instantly casted at any time, so that optimizing dps requires you to maximize the use of this spell without much reward.

Wall of Force | D&D 5th Edition
An invisible wall of force springs into existence at a point you choose within range. The wall appears in any orientation you choose, as a horizontal or vertical barrier or at an angle. It can be free floating or resting on a solid surface. [...]

Nothing can physically pass through the wall. It is immune to all damage and can't be dispelled by dispel magic. A disintegrate spell destroys the wall instantly, however. The wall also extends into the Ethereal Plane, blocking ethereal travel through the wall.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED WALL OF FORCE BACK IN THE DAY

Astral Projection | D&D 5th Edition

You and up to eight willing Creatures within range project your astral bodies into the Astral Plane (the spell fails and the casting is wasted if you are already on that plane). The material body you leave behind is unconscious

The spell ends for you and your Companions when you use your Action to dismiss it. When the spell ends, the affected creature returns to its physical body, and it awakens.

The spell might also end early for you or one of your Companions. A successful Dispel Magic spell used against an astral or physical body ends the spell for that creature.

This would be useful in AoC, so you could have eyes during sieges and other places

Arcane Eye | D&D 5th Edition

You create an Invisible, magical eye within range that hovers in the air for the Duration.

You mentally receive visual information from the eye, which has normal Vision and Darkvision out to 30 feet. The eye can look in every direction.

As an Action, you can move the eye up to 30 feet in any direction. There is no limit to how far away from you the eye can move, but it can't enter another plane of existence. A solid barrier blocks the eye's Movement, but the eye can pass through an opening as small as 1 inch in diameter.

Clairvoyance | D&D 5th Edition

You create an Invisible sensor within range in a Location familiar to you (a place you have visited or seen before) or in an obvious Location that is unfamiliar to you (such as behind a door, around a corner, or in a grove of trees). The sensor remains in place for the Duration, and it can't be attacked or otherwise interacted with.

When you cast the spell, you choose seeing or hearing. You can use the chosen sense through the sensor as if you were in its space. As your Action, you can switch between seeing and hearing.

A creature that can see the sensor (such as a creature benefitting from see Invisibility or truesight) sees a luminous, intangible orb about the size of your fist.

In AoC:
I would have something to bookmark familiar places to me, like my freehold, or something related to my guild, or the road I am used to caravan frequently.

Would be cool if we could mark crystals with the Clairvoyance spell, then that crystal would be the bookmark, I would be able to handle crystals or have my crystals at home

Commune with Nature | D&D 5th Edition

You briefly become one with Nature and gain knowledge of the surrounding territory. In the outdoors, the spell gives you knowledge of the land within 3 miles of you. In caves and other natural Underground settings, the radius is limited to 300 feet. The spell doesn't function where Nature has been replaced by construction, such as in Dungeons and towns.

You instantly gain knowledge of up to three facts of your choice about any of the following subjects as they relate to the area - terrain and bodies of water; prevalent Plants, minerals, animals, or peoples; powerful Celestials, fey, Fiends, Elementals, or undead; Influence from Other Planes of existence; buildings.

For example, you could determine the Location of powerful Undead in the area, the Location of major sources of safe drinking water, and the Location of any nearby towns.

This sounds like a spell ment for a Scion or Soulbow

Control Weather | D&D 5th Edition

You take control of the weather within 5 miles of you for the Duration. You must be outdoors to cast this spell. Moving to a place where you don't have a clear path to The Sky ends the spell early.

When you cast the spell, you change the current weather Conditions, which are determined by the DM based on the climate and season. You can change precipitation, Temperature, and wind. It takes 1d4 x 10 minutes for the new Conditions to take Effect. Once they do so, you can change the Conditions again. When the spell ends, the weather gradually returns to normal.

When you change the weather Conditions, find a current condition on the following tables and change its stage by one, up or down. When changing the wind, you can change its direction.

Precipitation:
Stage 1 - Clear
Stage 2 - Light clouds
Stage 3 - Overcast or ground fog
Stage 4 - Rain, hail or snow
Stage 5 - Torrential rain, driving hail or Blizzard

Temperature:
Stage 1 - Unbearable heat
Stage 2 - Hot
Stage 3 - Warm
Stage 4 - Cool
Stage 5 - Cold
Stage 6 - Arctic cold

Wind:
Stage 1 - Calm
Stage 2 - Moderate wind
Stage 3 - Strong Wind
Stage 4 - Gale
Stage 5 - Storm

This kind of spell is super badass... the weather system in AoC is the best there is!

But the question is: would changing the weather have practical use for the players?
I don't know... but if it had than yes

Disguise Self | D&D 5th Edition

You make yourself, including your clothing, armor, Weapons, and other belongings on your person, look different until the spell ends or until you use your Action to dismiss it. You can seem 1 foot shorter or taller and can appear thin, fat, or in between. You can't change your body type, so you must adopt a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs. Otherwise, the extent of the Illusion is up to you.

The changes wrought by this spell fail to hold up to physical inspection. For example, if you use this spell to add a hat to your outfit, Objects pass through the hat, and anyone who touches it would feel nothing or would feel your head and hair. If you use this spell to appear thinner than you are, the hand of someone who reaches out to touch you would bump into you while it was seemingly still in midair.

To discern that you are disguised, a creature can use its Action to inspect your Appearance and must succeed on an Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC.

A spell which could change your appeareance and name would be fantastic, specially for people at war, thieves, etc... people who use such a spell would probably be doing shady stuff

Finger of Death | D&D 5th Edition

You send negative energy coursing through a creature that you can see within range, causing it searing pain. The target must make a Constitution saving throw. It takes 7d8+30 necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

A Humanoid killed by this spell rises at the start of your next turn as a Zombie that is permanently under your Command, following your verbal orders to the best of its ability.

Poiting the finger at someone and the guy dying is quite cool LMAO

Irresistible Dance| D&D 5th Edition

Choose one creature that you can see within range. The target begins a comic dance in place - shuffling, tapping its feet, and capering for the Duration. Creatures that can't be Charmed are immune to this spell.

A Dancing creature must use all its Movement to dance without leaving its space and has disadvantage on Dexterity Saving Throws and Attack rolls. While the target is affected by this spell, other Creatures have advantage on Attack rolls against it. As an Action, a Dancing creature makes a Wisdom saving throw to regain control of itself. On a successful save, the spell ends.

Force others into dancing during fights, this is funniest than the good old paralyze
Maybe the dancing person could still walk, but would be dancing instead of attacking

Absolutely, should have group spells!

In another topic I suggested turnning players into Wraiths or Battle Fairies

So one player playing as Necromancer could Transform all his party into Wraiths

Czeris

I really want an animate dead spell where you can raise the corpse of your enemy and fight his friends (or the player himself after he respawns) with it. But I guess AoC doesn't have corpses, just piles of ash, which leaves me with a lot of questions as to how the necromancer's skills are going to work.

I want beautiful spells. But that does not mean I want spells covering the entire screen, yet i still want them to be impactful and epic. Most of this can be done with great sound effects.

I've linked this clip in the past, but here's a good example of beautiful sound effects.
