I would say it can't penetrate a Wall of Force though, because Spellfire can't.

Silverfire /= Spellfire

I would need to check soures to be sure however Silverfire does appear more powerful then Spellfire. OTOH the sphere/wall is not a single barrier of protection , rather it is a series of protection. Further spell level tends to be a factor.

Thing is Wall of Force is a lower level spell than Prismatic Sphere and Spellfire was able to wipe a Prismatic Sphere away, yet not a Wall of Force.

Prismatic Sphere is an offensive barrier, while Wall of Force is nothing more than a pure barrier.

The only way that I know of that Spellfire can destroy a Wall of Force is for the wielder to go up and absorb the wall directly.
