Notes

    • By default Divine Smite: Critical Hit is on auto and Divine Smite is disabled.
    • In-game Divine Smite is listed under Class Actions in your spellbook.
  • Despite consuming spell slots, Divine Smite is not a spell. It can be cast when Silenced Silenced.
  • Additionally, it cannot be countered with Counterspell Counterspell
