You cause a creature or an object you can see within range to grow larger or smaller for the duration. Choose either a creature or an object that is neither worn nor carried. If the target is unwilling, it can make a Constitution saving throw. On a success, the spell has no effect.

If the target is a creature, everything it is wearing and carrying changes size with it. Any item dropped by an affected creature returns to normal size at once.

Enlarge. The target's size doubles in all dimensions, and its weight is multiplied by eight. This growth increases its size by one category - from Medium to Large, for example. If there isn't enough room for the target to double its size, the creature or object attains the maximum possible size in the space available. Until the spell ends, the target also has advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws. The target's weapons also grow to match its new size. While these weapons are enlarged, the target's attack with them deal 1d4 extra damage.

Reduce. The target's size is halved in all dimensions, and its weight is reduced to one-eighth of normal. This reduction decreases its size by one category - from Medium to Small, for example. Until the spell ends, the target also has disadvantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws. The target's weapons also shrink to match its new size. While these weapons are reduced, the target's attacks with them deal 1d4 less damage (this can't reduce the damage below 1).

The SendingStone review

#EnlargeReduce is a second-level spell that allows a sorcerer or wizard to either double or halve the size of a creature or object within 30 feet for up to one minute. This can be used strategically in combat by enlarging allies or reducing enemies, or to navigate through tight spaces or move large objects. However, the spell does require concentration and may not be useful in all situations. Additionally, the pinch of iron powder required as a material component may be difficult to obtain in certain environments. Overall, #EnlargeReduce is a versatile and potentially powerful spell in the right situations.
