Mages Guild Conjuration vs Evocation: Which Storm Forged Set?

Quick answer

Choose the Conjuration 7pc RPG Set if you want the lower catalog price of the two Mages Guild options and a summoner-flavored set. Choose the Evocation 7pc RPG Set if raw-damage spellcasting fits your character better and you are comfortable paying a little more for that theme.

What actually separates the two sets

Both are 7-piece RPG sets from the Storm Forged Mages Guild line, a collaboration between Die Hard Dice and Jake Stormoen's Storm Forged brand. Each set glitters with unseen magic, and each d20 has a sunken face with the Storm Forged dragon logo. The catalog does not list different materials, finishes, or included accessories for either set, so the honest comparison is theme and price, not build quality.

That means you are not choosing between a premium set and a budget set. You are choosing which spell school you want sitting in front of you for a campaign, and how much you want to pay for it.

Price is the clearest practical difference

In the supplied catalog, the Conjuration set is listed at USD 37.37 against a comparison price of USD 54.95, while the Evocation set is listed at USD 34.62 against the same USD 54.95 comparison price. The gap is small, but it is real, and it runs in the opposite direction from what the names might suggest.

If you are buying one set for a long campaign, that difference is unlikely to decide anything. If you are buying two sets, one for a player and one for a GM, or adding a set to an existing collection, the lower Evocation price makes it the easier second purchase.

Where the theme matters more than the specs

Because the catalog does not separate the sets on specs, the theme is doing most of the work. Conjuration suits a character who summons, binds, and controls, and the set's verse leans into that idea of drawing something out of nothing. Evocation suits a character who throws fire, force, and lightning, and its verse warns about raw power and taming Inferno's Maw.

Pick the set whose theme you will actually enjoy reading on the table every session. A set that matches your character sheet is easier to justify keeping in the dice bag.

What you give up either way

Neither set is described in the supplied catalog with a specific metal type, weight, or finish, so you cannot use this comparison to choose between, say, a heavier and a lighter dice set. If weight and hand feel are your deciding factors, ask the store for those details before ordering rather than assuming the two sets differ.

Both sets also carry the same Mages Guild styling, so if you already own one Mages Guild set, the second will look like a sibling rather than a completely different collection piece.

Trade-offs to weigh before you buy

• Conjuration at USD 37.37: You pay slightly more than the Evocation set for the summoner theme. Choose it when the character concept is the priority and the small price difference does not matter.
• Evocation at USD 34.62: You get the lower catalog price of the two while keeping the same Mages Guild build and dragon-logo d20. Choose it when you want the damage-spell theme or you are buying a second set on a budget. If you are buying two sets at once, start with Evocation and add Conjuration later.
• Shared features you cannot compare: The catalog does not list different materials, weights, or finishes, so do not expect this choice to change how the dice feel in hand. If hand feel is your deciding factor, confirm the details with the store first.
