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. | In the case of '''[[Multiclassing]]''', learned class spells will use the '''Spellcasting Ability Modifier''' for the class the spell is learned as.

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. | ||
However, although taking one level in the [[Barbarian]] class change the '''Spellcasting Ability Modifer''' to Charisma (despite barbarians having no use for this stat if they are not specialised in Wild Magic), [[Fighter|fighters]] and [[Rogue|rogues]] will only provide their ability if they are level 3 and in the appropriate subclass (Eldritch Knight and Arcane Trickster). | |||
{{InfoBlob|<nowiki>Ranger 1, Barbarian 1, Rogue 1</nowiki>}} will use '''CHA''' instead of '''INT''' for item and illithid spellcasting. | |||
