| notes = * This spell can be considered a significantly more powerful version of {{SAI|Magic Missile}}. When upcast with a level 5 spell slot, Magic Missile does 7d4+7 (14~35) force damage across 7 projectiles, dealing 24.5 force damage on average. Artistry of War does 12d6+36 (48~108) force damage across 6 projectiles, dealing '''78''' force damage on average.
| notes = * This spell can only be acquired by a [[Wizard]] scribing it from a [[Scroll of Artistry of War]], which is obtained by reading [[The Red Knight's Final Stratagem]] in the vault of [[Sorcerous Sundries]]. The book can be found at {{coords|368|1057}}, behind a wall north of the entry portal to the vault, locked behind a hidden button (requires a DC 15 Perception check to reveal).
* As of Hotfix #17, the damage ''per apparition'' shown on the ingame tooltip is correct, but the ''overall'' damage listed is incorrect. The tooltip claims it deals 18~78 damage, but the combat log reveals that each apparition indeed deals 2d6+6 damage, which leads to a total of 48~108 damage.
