[5e] Flame Blade

When dragging the flame blade from the compendium to the character sheet I've noticed that the damage roll seems to be wrong. The text of flame blade says 3d6 and an additional 1d6 for every 2 cast levels above 2nd level, so: 2nd level 3d6 4th level 3d6+1d6 6th level 3d6+2d6 the macro code for damage is {{damage=[[3d6[damage] + ((?{Spell Level|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9} - 2) * 1)d6[higher lvl]]]}} {{damage_type=fire}} {{crit_damage=[[0d0 + 3d6 + [crit damage] ((?{Spell Level|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9} - 2) * 1)d6[higher lvl]]]}} 0 0 {{cast_as_level=?{Spell Level|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9}}} @{Aloiene Liadone|hide_gm_info} 0 0 note the - 2, all it's doing is subtracting 2 from the cast level, meaning flame blade is OP, so: 2nd level 3d6 3rd level 3d6+1d6 4th level 3d6+2d6 5th level 3d6+3d6 6th level 3d6+4d6 What I did was add / 2 and restrict cast level {{damage=[[3d6[damage] + (((?{Spell Level|2|4|6|8} - 2) / 2) * 1)d6[higher lvl]]]}} {{damage_type=fire}} {{crit_damage=[[0d0 + 3d6 + [crit damage] (((?{Spell Level|2|4|6|8} - 2) / 2) * 1)d6[higher lvl]]]}} 0 0 {{cast_as_level=?{Spell Level|2|4|6|8}}} @{Aloiene Liadone|hide_gm_info} 0 0 So subtract the 2 for the initial 2nd level requirement and then divide the result by 2. Not sure if this is the best place to submit this bugette, but here you go.

Hey, Gabriel B. I changed Flame Blade's Higher Spell Slot Dice from 1 to 0.49 — this should provide the correct damage. Thanks!
