Spell Sniper

Template:Up to date

Spell Sniper is a passive feature obtainable by a Feat of the same name. Users with this feature have learned an additional cantrip, and are more likely to critical hit with a spell.

Description

You learn a cantrip, and the number you need to roll a Critical Hit while attacking with a Spell is reduced by 1. This effect can stack.

The cantrip must be one of:

•  Bone Chill
•  Eldritch Blast
•  Fire Bolt
•  Ray of Frost
•  Shocking Grasp
•  Thorn Whip

How to learn

Granted by feats: Spell Sniper (Feat)

Notes

• Applies to targeted projectile spells with a range greater than 1.5 m / 5 ft and no area of effect.
• These cantrips do scale with character level. So a Level 5 Fighter with Spell Sniper will send two rays with Eldritch Blast, or roll two damage dice for Ray of Frost.
• These cantrips use the character's Spellcasting Ability. For example, if a Cleric chooses Eldritch Blast with this feat, they use their Wisdom modifier and not their Charisma modifier.
