Hi all,
So I'm currently in 3 games, one of which I run, but in the game I currently play the most my wood-elf moon druid just hit level 9.
So I was looking at all the 5th level spells I now have available, albeit for one cast a day, and I had a few questions:
Antilife shell: This spell seems 95% useless unless you're just using it to keep mosquitos off you in a swamp. I'm trying to think of a reason my druid would ever waste time preparing this spell but I'm coming up short. Is the spell really this meh or am I missing something? Maybe if I want to keep a horde of stupid creatures with no range off me and my group?
Contagion: I've read the sage advice on this spell and I understand how as written the spell could have been too powerful as a boss killer. The sage advice, however, seems to make this spell almost useless in combat. Are there any home brewed, balanced options out there for this spell that I can run by my DM?

Planar Binding: If I summon an elemental through conjure elemental, can my cleric party member cast Planar Binding to take control of it for 24 hours? And if he does, does it keep on being a concentration spell for my character? If not, then does it become a concentration spell for him?
