== Arcane Trickster Spell List ==
 
'''Arcane Trickster's''' Spell List is the same as the Wizard's, but with only non-cantrip spells from the schools of [[:Category:Enchantment Spells|Enchantment]] or [[:Category:Illusion Spells|Illusion]] plus every wizard cantrip. However, Arcane Tricksters may learn a spell from the entire wizard spell list at levels 3 and 8. '''The Replacement Spell Feature''' also allows an Arcane Trickster to swap any known spell with any spell from the full wizard spell list, once per level starting at class level 4.
