Tips

The TNT spell has significantly more charges than the Bomb spell, but destroys a smaller amount of terrain.
With the Homing modifier, dynamite sticks can be made to follow enemies, but it has a tendency to overshoot them.
With the Bombs Materialized perk, TNT can be held and used directly from item slots.

For a significant period of Early Access, spells that summoned non-magical explosives were not affected by flight-path altering projectile modifiers.
The spell's name varies between in-game and in the Progress screen
