Spells are magical effects that are created by creatures via spellcasting.^{[note 1]} Spells are frequently cast to deal damage and provide healing, or to inflict conditions on the targets.

All classes are capable of casting spells with the help of scrolls and magic items, and classes with the Spellcasting or Pact Magic features – called spellcasters – have spell slots they can expend to cast spells they know, without the need for scrolls.

Overview[edit | edit source]

Spells are created from the Weave, the magical energies of the multiverse. They are conjured through experience, knowledge, or innate ability, or via the use of scrolls and magical items.

Spell levels[edit | edit source]

All spells have a level – a measure of its power and difficulty to cast. To cast a spell, the caster must usually expend a spell slot of sufficient level. Spells cast from scrolls do not consume spell slots when cast, nor do most spells granted by magic items.

Level 0 spells are called cantrips, and can always be cast at will, without expending a spell slot.

Spellcasting ability[edit | edit source]

Every class – including those without the Spellcasting feature – has a designated ability known as their spellcasting ability, which represents their capacity to cast spells.^{[note 2]}

Intelligence: Fighter, Rogue, Wizard.
Wisdom: Cleric, Druid, Monk, Ranger.
Charisma: Barbarian, Bard, Paladin, Sorcerer, Warlock.

When casting a spell, the spellcasting ability used depends on whether the spell was learned (first two points below) or cast from an item.

Spells learned from taking levels in a class will use that class' spellcasting ability modifier.
Spells learned from scribing a scroll into your Spellbook count as Wizard spells (because learning from scrolls is a Wizard feature) and thus use Intelligence.
Spells from other sources (including items, Illithid Powers that require a saving throw, and using scrolls directly from inventory) use the spellcasting ability of the class the creature most recently took a first level in.^{[note 3]}

Spell properties[edit | edit source]

Each spell belongs to a school which defines its general purpose, and all spells have a range at which they can be cast, and a specified target or area of effect. A spell may have an instantaneous effect when cast (for example a magical attack), or a spell may have an effect which persists for a specified duration (measured in turns).

Most spells can be interrupted by Counterspell before they are cast, and most spells cannot be cast by Silenced creatures.

Schools of magic[edit | edit source]

Every spell belongs to one of eight schools of magic: abjuration, conjuration, divination, enchantment, evocation, illusion, necromancy, or transmutation. Some class features only benefit spells of a specific school.

Casting time[edit | edit source]

All spells have a casting time that determines whether it requires the caster to take an Action, a Bonus action, or a Reaction. Most spells require the caster to take an action.

Spell saves[edit | edit source]

Harmful spells which don't require an attack roll, such spells that target an area or a specific point in space – or that affect a target directly – often allow targeted creatures to attempt a save against the spell, potentially ignoring or reducing the spell's effect.

The Difficulty Class (DC) of these saves – called the spell save DC – is generally based on the caster's spellcasting DC:

8 + proficiency bonus + spellcasting ability modifier

Examples of spells that require saves

Certain equipment worn by the caster can also affect their Spell DCs.

Spell attack rolls[edit | edit source]

Some harmful spells – typically those cast in the form of rays or as projectiles – require the caster to make an attack roll against the target's AC in order to determine if their spell attack is a hit or a miss.

The caster adds their spellcasting ability modifier, as well as their proficiency bonus, to the results of the attack roll:

d20 + proficiency bonus + spellcasting ability modifier

Examples of spells that require spell attacks

Concentration[edit | edit source]

Most spells with a duration require Concentration to maintain them. A caster may only maintain the effect of one concentration spell at a time. If concentration on a spell is broken, the spell's effects are ended immediately.

Ending concentration[edit | edit source]

Concentration icon in the hotbar. Clicking "X" will end concentration.

Although concentration normally lasts for a spell's full duration, or until another concentration spell is cast, there are multiple ways for concentration to break:

Manually: Concentration can be ended by the player at any time via the “X” on the current concentration spell's icon, displayed next to the caster's main portrait.
Taking damage: Any time a creature concentrating on a spell takes damage, they make a Constitution save against a DC equal to half the damage taken, or 10, whichever is higher.^{[note 4]} If the save fails, concentration ends.
Conditions: Some conditions – such as Downed or Sleeping – also end concentration, without allowing a save.
Long rests: Taking a long rest ends concentration.
Dismissing companion: Sending a companion to camp or otherwise removing them from the active party ends their concentration.

Spellcasters[edit | edit source]

Spellcasters can either be full casters – meaning they can learn up to 6th level spells, half casters – meaning they can learn up to 3rd level spells, or one-third casters – meaning they can learn up to 2nd level spells. Non spellcasters do not gain or add spell slots.

Full casters[edit | edit source]

Half casters[edit | edit source]

One-third casters[edit | edit source]

Arcane Trickster
Rogue subclass
Eldritch Knight
Fighter subclass

Non spellcasters[edit | edit source]

Monk including subclasses
Barbarian including subclasses
Rogue (other than Arcane Trickster)
Fighter (other than Eldritch Knight)

Known spells[edit | edit source]

Known spells are spells generally learned from taking levels in a class with the Spellcasting or Pact Magic features. Each caster class has access to its own list of spells, though there is significant overlap between classes.

The following classes must learn spells through leveling up:

These classes, with the exception of wizard, also have access to the Replacement Spell feature, which allows them to swap a known spell each time a new level is taken in them. Wizards can instead learn new spells from scrolls, without needing to give up an already known spell.

The following classes automatically learn all their available spells when a level is taken in them:

A Wizard's Spellbook window: it allows you to change prepared spells outside combat

Prepared spells[edit | edit source]

Some casters – known as prepared spellcasters to set them apart from spontaneous spellcasters – must prepare a smaller selection of their known spells to cast them. Spells can be prepared at any time except during combat.

Prepared spellcasters include:

The number of prepared spells each class can have at a time is equal to spellcasting ability modifier + class level (minimum of 1).

Additionally, spells granted by racial features or by certain class features (such as by cleric Domains) are considered inherent and are always prepared.

Some spells with ongoing effects that do not require concentration, like Speak with Animals or Aid, must remain in the caster's prepared spells list after being cast, or their effects will end.

Spell slots[edit | edit source]

All spellcasters have spell slots, which they expend to cast their known spells. Cantrips do not expend spell slots and can be cast at will. Depleted spell slots are generally replenished by taking a Long Rest (Short Rest for Warlocks), though there are methods of creating additional slots, or replenishing expended ones.

A spell of a given level requires a spell slot of the same level or higher to be expended to cast it. Many spells will be upcast when cast with a higher spell slot, making them more powerful. Even if it gains no other benefit, a spell always counts as a spell of the level of the slot used to cast it.

Spellcasting[edit | edit source]

12	4	3	3	3	2	1

A caster's available Spellcasting spell slots are determined by the caster's effective spellcaster level (ESL). A full caster's ESL is exactly their class level, whereas the ESL of half-casters and one-third casters is equal to half and one third their level, respectively, rounded up.

When multiple classes with the Spellcasting feature are chosen for a character, the creature's total ESL is instead the summed ESL of every individual spellcasting class they have taken a level in, each rounded down.

Pact Magic[edit | edit source]

Warlocks do not cast spells through the Spellcasting feature, but through their unique Pact Magic feature. Spell slots granted by Pact Magic are always of the highest level the Warlock can cast, and are replenished on a short rest. Spells cast using Pact Magic are always upcast at the highest possible level.

To distinguish them from Spellcasting spell slots, Pact Magic spell slots have a unique colour:

Spell slots gained from Pact Magic are calculated differently than those gained from Spellcasting. As such, levels taken in warlock are ignored when calculating ESL.

Other uses of spell slots[edit | edit source]

Some Wizard subclass features (such as Arcane Ward and Grim Harvest) and the Paladin's Divine Smite ability have varying effects depending on level of the spell or spell slot used to power them.

Ritual spells[edit | edit source]

When a ritual spell is cast outside of combat/turn-based mode, it does not consume spell slots and is effectively free to cast. Ritual spells consume spell slots as normal in combat/turn-based mode.

Scrolls[edit | edit source]

Spells can be cast from scrolls that are bought, found or looted. Spells cast from scrolls cannot be upcast (cast with a higher level spell slot for additional benefits e.g. to affect more targets) or benefit from metamagic. Scrolls cannot be created (scribed from a wizard's spellbook). Wizards can learn spells from scrolls (scribe the spell from a scroll into their spellbook). See Wizard/Spell scribing.

Notes[edit | edit source]

↑ The term spellcasting refers both to the act of casting spells, as well as the Spellcasting class feature. The latter is always capitalised, whereas the former is generally not.
↑ Some spells designate a specific spellcasting ability regardless of the class casting them. This is most commonly a result of spells obtained via racial features. Arcane Trickster Rogues and Eldritch Knight Fighters gain the Spellcasting feature as part of the subclass selected at Level 3.
↑ A character who starts with 5 levels in Sorcerer will use Charisma for all of their sorcerer spells, as well as spells granted by equipment (e.g. the Firebolt cantrip granted by the Gold Wyrmling Staff) and spell scrolls. If this character at level 6 takes their first level in Wizard then their Wizard spells (including spell scrolls scribed into their Spellbook) will use Intelligence, their Sorcerer spells will continue to use Charisma, but spells granted from equipment and spell scrolls cast directly from inventory will now use Intelligence. If the character at level 7 takes their sixth level in Sorcerer then nothing changes, because Sorcerer is not a "new" class on this character. However if the character at level 8 now takes their first level in Druid then their Sorcerer spells continue to use Charisma, their Wizard spells (including scrolls scribed into their Spellbook) continue to use Intelligence, their Druid spells now use Wisdom, and spells granted by equipment and scrolls cast directly from inventory now use Wisdom since Druid is a "new" class on this character.
↑ Constitution saves are sometimes erroneously referred to as a Constitution checks.
↑ Warlocks have the Pact Magic feature, which functions similarly to Spellcasting.

+; Long rests : Taking a [[Resting|long rest]] ends concentration.
+; Dismissing companion : Sending a companion to camp or otherwise removing them from the active party ends their concentration.
-A spell's level occasionally has mechanical impact outside of the spell slot level required for its use: Wizards need to spend more gold to learn a higher level spell, [[Counterspell]] is harder to use against a spell of a higher level. A couple of subclass features for Wizards also scale off of the spell slot level used ('''Arcane Ward, Grim Harvest''')
+== Spellcasters ==
+Spellcasters can either be ''full casters'' – meaning they can learn up to 6th level spells, ''half casters'' – meaning they can learn up to 3rd level spells, or ''one-third casters'' – meaning they can learn up to 2nd level spells. Non spellcasters do not gain or add spell slots.

+A caster's available Spellcasting spell slots are determined by the caster's ''effective spellcaster level'' (''ESL''). A full caster's ESL is exactly their class level, whereas the ESL of half-casters and one-third casters is equal to half and one third their level, respectively, rounded up.
-The total amount of spell slots a spellcaster would get is dependent upon their '''Effective Spellcaster Level (ESL).''' For full spellcasters ({{Class|Bard}}s, {{Class|Cleric}}s, {{Class|Druid}}s, {{Class|Sorcerer}}s, and {{Class|Wizard}}s) this is exactly their class level (A level 5 wizard has an Effective Spellcaster Level of 5); "Half-spellcasters" ({{Class|Ranger}}s and {{Class|Paladin}}s), are not considered spellcasters until class level 2, at which point their '''ESL'''  is their class level halved. "One-third-spellcasters"  ({{Class|Arcane Trickster}}s and {{Class|Eldritch Knight}}s) are all subclasses that can only be taken at class level three, their '''ESL'''  is their class level divided by three. For the purpose of determining Spell Slot Distribution the '''ESL''' is '''rounded up''' when no multiclassing of multiple spellcaster classes is involved.
+When multiple classes with the Spellcasting feature are chosen for a character, the creature's total ESL is instead the summed ESL of every individual spellcasting class they have taken a level in, each rounded down.
-When multiple spellcaster classes are chosen for a character, the character's '''ESL''' is instead the '''ESL''' of every individual spellcasting class that the character has, each rounded down, and then summed up. As an example, a level 1 cleric/level 3 paladin/level 3 ranger character would have an '''ESL''' of 3, because:{{InfoBlob|<nowiki>1 + round_down(1.5) + round_down(1.5) = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3</nowiki>}}
-Because of the differing rounding between non-multiclass and multiclass characters, a peculiar edge case exists when a "partial spellcaster" multiclasses into another "partial spellcaster" class. To illustrate this consider a level 3 paladin that picks up a level of ranger. Both of these classes are "half-spellcasters". A level 3 pure paladin has an '''ESL''' of 2, due to the rounding up. But when they multiclass into another "half-spellcasters" class, one may assume this character would lose an '''ESL''' by leveling up, as the rule now requires rounding down. However, as mentioned earlier, "partial spellcasters" classes are not considered spellcasters until they get to '''ESL 1 without rounding'''. So a level 3 paladin/level 1 ranger still has an '''ESL''' of 2. In short, due to how the rule is written, '''a character will never lose ESL by leveling up''', no matter what.
-Once the '''Effective Spellcaster Level''' is known, one can consult the appended table to find out their character's spell slot distribution.
-The number of spell slot for each level across ESL has no clear pattern, but when a spell level opens up does have an identifiable pattern. '''The maximum spell level a spellcaster has access to is their ESL halved and then rounded up.'''
-{{Class|Warlock}}s are unique in this regard. Their spell slots are all of uniform level, matching the highest spell slot available of a normal full spellcaster class until spell level 5, which is the highest level spell slot warlocks can have. They also simply gain a spell slot at class level 1,2, and 11.
-== Concentration ==
-''Main page: [[Concentration]]''
-'''{{Concentration}}''' is another type of resource a spellcaster has. Certain spells require the caster to continuously put focus into the spell in order to maintain its effects. Such spells are called '''{{Concentration}}''' spells, and this requirement will be clearly labeled with the '''{{Concentration}}''' tag in the spell's description. The caster may still do other actions while concentrating, but are at risk of losing said concentration under certain circumstances. If the caster loses Concentration, the spell ends prematurely. A caster can only concentrate on one spell at a time - said spell will be shown on top of/next to the caster's portrait and in the list of conditions the spellcaster has.
-Ways a caster can lose Concentration while concentrating includes:
-* Failing a Concentration Constitution [[Saving Throws|Saving Throw]]. Said Saving Throw occurs every time a concentrating caster takes damage. The DC of this Saving Throw is either 10 or half the number of damage taken, whichever is higher.
-* Being affected by [[Condition]]s such as [[Condition#Downed|Downed]], [[Condition#Sleeping|Sleeping]], [[Rage]], etc. If this happens Concentration is dropped without recourse.
-* The caster can also voluntarily end the Concentration effect. Either by casting another Concentration Spell, or by manually ending Concentration.
-** Unlike most actions, the manual ending of concentration can be done at anytime, even amidst someone else's turn. For players this is done via the x button on the concentrated spell's icon next to the caster's main portrait.
-Due to the impact of many '''{{Concentration}}''' spells, it is very beneficial for a spellcaster to acquire an {{Advantage}} or bonuses for their Concentration Constitution Saving Throws, but this is rather difficult to come by:
-* The [[War Caster|War caster]] [[Feats|Feat]] grants {{Advantage}} on Concentration Saving Throws.
-* The [[Resilient|Resilient (Constitution)]] [[Feats|Feat]] Grants a +1 to a character's Constitution score as well as granting [[Proficiency]] in all Constitution Saving Throws.
-* '''Transmuter's Stone(Constitution)''', a [[Transmutation School]] [[Wizard]] subclass feature, grants the holder of said stone [[Proficiency]] in all Constitution Saving Throws.
-* '''Arcane Ward''', an [[Abjuration School]] [[Wizard]] subclass feature, reduces all incoming damage. When the damage is reduced to 0, no Concentration Saving Throws take place.
-* [[Bless]] and [[Resistance]] each grant a 1d4 bonus to all Saving Throws. Both are concentration spells themselves, so the casters of these spells are themselves at risk of dropping these spells when taking damage.
-* [[Gaseous Form]] grants {{Advantage}} on all Constitution saving throws but also sets the target's Constitution score to 10, and is itself again a concentration spell.
-* [[Warding Bond]] grants its target a +1 bonus to all Saving Throws, and persists until long rest and does not require concentration. However it requires the caster of warding bond to take all damage their target does.
-* [[Constitution#Advantage_on_Saving_Throws|Several items]] such as {{RarityItem|Spidersilk Armour}} grant {{Advantage}} on Constitution saving throws.
-== Spellcasting Ability and Proficiency ==
-Every class, ''even non-spellcasters'', has an [[Ability Scores|ability]] specifically designated to represent their ability to cast spells. This ability would be that class's '''Spellcasting Ability''', the Ability Score Modifier of said '''Spellcasting Ability''' is directly added to the difficulty for which the spellcaster's targets face when trying to mitigate the effects of most spells from said spellcaster. This added difficulty-to-resist is more simply known as the spellcaster's '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier.'''
-Non-spellcasters typically only cast spells by using magical items (which include scrolls), regardless, all characters get to add their '''Proficiency''' '''Bonus''' to their spell's difficulty-to-resist, in a similar fashion to their '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier'''.
-For more details, see the [[Saving Throw]] and [[Attack Roll]] pages for a comprehensive explanation of how the '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier''' and '''Proficiency''' '''Bonus''' is applied.
-Each class uses a different [[Ability Modifier|Ability Score Modifier]] for spellcasting:<!-- Sorted by spellcaster status, and then alphabetically -->
-* {{SmallIcon|Intelligence_Ability_Icon.png|link=Intelligence}} '''[[Intelligence]] (INT)''': {{Class|Wizard}}s, {{Class|Fighter}}s*<sup>†</sup>, and {{Class|Rogue}}s*<sup>†</sup>.
-* {{SmallIcon|Wisdom_Ability_Icon.png|link=Wisdom}} '''[[Wisdom]] (WIS)''': {{Class|Cleric}}s, {{Class|Ranger}}s, {{Class|Druid}}s, and {{Class|Monk}}s*.
-* {{SmallIcon|Charisma_Ability_Icon.png|link=Charisma}} '''[[Charisma]] (CHA)''':{{Class|Bard}}s, {{Class|Paladin}}s, {{Class|Sorcerer}}s, {{Class|Warlock}}s, and {{Class|Barbarian}}s*.
-''*Non-spellcasters''
-''<sup>†</sup>These classes, while normally non-spellcasters, have the option of becoming spellcasters by specializing into specific subclasses ({{Class|Arcane Trickster}}s and {{Class|Eldritch Knight}}s)''
-''Note: Some spells designate a specific '''Spellcasting Ability''' regardless of the class casting them. This is most commonly a result of spells obtained via racial features.''
-=== Multiclassing ===
-In the case of '''[[Multiclassing]]''', learned class spells will use the '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier''' for the class the spell is learned as. So a '''[[Fire Bolt]]''' learned as a [[Wizard]] will use '''INT''' for its attack rolls, but a '''[[Fire Bolt]]''' learned as a [[Sorcerer]] will use '''CHA''' for its attack rolls.
-For spells on items ([[Weapons]], [[Equipment]], [[Scrolls]]... etc.), the '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier''' used will be from the most recent ''new'' class that was multiclassed into. As an example, a character with the level progression  {{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Wizard 1, Wizard 2, Sorcerer 1, Wizard 3</nowiki>}} will use '''CHA''' for item spellcasting as [[Sorcerer]] is the latest new class for the character. If the same character then levels up {{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Cleric 1</nowiki>}}, [[Cleric]] would be the latest new class so '''WIS''' will now be used for item spellcasting for this character. Finally, if the same character then levels up {{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Sorcerer 2</nowiki>}}, it would still continue to use '''WIS''' for item spellcasting.<div style="display:flex; width:100%">

-== Prepared Spells ==
-[[File:Prepared Spells Icon.webp|24px]] '''Prepared Spells''' are Spells that must be prepared beforehand in order to be cast, this can only be done outside of combat. Spellcasters that primarily utilize this type of spells are known as '''Prepared Spellcasters'''. This includes:
-* {{Class|Cleric}}
-* {{Class|Druid}}
-* {{Class|Paladin}}
-* {{Class|Wizard}}
-These spellcasters will need to anticipate which spells would be useful in advance. In exchange, these classes will have access to every class-level-appropriate spell in their Spell List.
-Uniquely, Wizards are prepared casters that can only choose a subset of eligible spells to be learnt on leveling up, but are allowed to learn more spells by transcribing scrolls.
-The number of Prepared Spells each class can have at a time is equal to '''(Spellcasting Ability Modifier + Class Level) (Minimum of 1)'''
-For this purpose a Paladin's class level is '''halved and rounded down'''.
-</div>
-<div class="width:50%" style="padding:5px">
-== Known Spells ==
-'''Known Spells''' are spells permanently memorized by a spellcaster, meaning these Spells are functionally '''Always Prepared'''. Spellcasters that primarily utilizes this type of spells are known as '''Spontaneous Spellcasters'''. This includes:
-* {{Class|Arcane Trickster}}
-* {{Class|Bard}}
-* {{Class|Eldritch Knight}}
-* {{Class|Ranger}}
-* {{Class|Sorcerer}}
-* {{Class|Warlock}}
-These spellcasters will not need to worry about spell preparation. In exchange, they can only learn a subset of their class's Spell List.
-Spontaneous Spellcasters have access to the '''Replacement Spell''' feature, which allows them to swap a known spell each time they level up.
-Additionally, Spells granted by [[Character_Creation#Playable_Races|Races]] or by certain Subclasses (such as [[Cleric]] Domains) are considered "inherent" and are '''Always Prepared'''. This happens even if the character in question has a class that is normally a Prepared Spellcaster.

-==== Level 1 Spells ====
+==== Pact Magic ====
+Warlocks do not cast spells through the Spellcasting feature, but through their unique Pact Magic feature. Spell slots granted by Pact Magic are always of the highest level the Warlock can cast, and are replenished on a short rest. Spells cast using Pact Magic are always upcast at the highest possible level.
-* {{Icon|Ico knownSpells lvl 01.png|24px}} '''Level 1 Spells''' are '''Spells''' that consume Level 1 [[Spells#Spell Slots|Spell Slots]] when cast.
+To distinguish them from Spellcasting spell slots, Pact Magic spell slots have a unique colour: {{SpellSlot|1 Warlock|2|w=24}}
-{{div col | style = column-width: 18em; list-style-type: none;}}
+Spell slots gained from Pact Magic are calculated differently than those gained from Spellcasting. As such, levels taken in warlock are ignored when calculating ESL.

-== Trivia ==

+* [[List of all spells]]
+* [[D&D 5e Spell Changes]]
+* [[Unimplemented spells]]
-* Some spells were changed from their D&D 5e counterparts. For a detailed comparison see [[D&D 5e Spell Changes]].
+== Notes ==
-* There is an unused image in the game files for a D&D spell named  [[File:Spell MagicJar.png|frameless|upright=0.1]][https://www.dndbeyond.com/spells/magic-jar Magic Jar]. It was likely cut from the game.
+{{notebegin}}
-* According to Swen Vincke, [[File:Unshackling Strike Weapon Action Icon.webp|frameless|upright=0.1]] [https://www.dndbeyond.com/spells/dispel-magic Dispel Magic] spell was cut from Baldur's Gate 3. <ref>[https://www.pcgamer.com/baldurs-gate-3-devs-tried-to-make-dandds-dispel-magic-work-for-a-long-time-but-they-had-to-can-it-it-wouldve-doubled-the-size-of-the-game/ Baldur's Gate 3 devs tried to make D&D's Dispel Magic work for a long time, but they had to can it: 'it would've doubled the size of the game']</ref>
+{{notelist}}
-** The icon for this spell still exists in the game but used for [[Unshackling Strike (Weapon Action)]].
+{{noteend}}
-** The icon is reminiscent of the Dispel Magic icons in Baldur's Gate 1 and 2, and it is in fact still labelled 'Spell_Abjuration_DispelMagic' within the game files.
