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 Effective Spellcaster Level 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 Effective Spellcaster Level is their class level divided by three. For the purpose of determining Spell Slot Distribution the Effective Spellcaster Level is '''rounded up'''. | |||
<!-- In 5e, ESL of a multiclassed character rounds down immediately after division and the results are then summed up. We don't know how Larian handles multiclassing yet, So I've elected to omit this detail. --> | |||
Once the '''Effective Spellcaster Level''' is known, one can consult the following 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.''' | 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.

{{Class|Warlock}}s are unique in this regard, their spell slots are all of a 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. | {{Class|Warlock}}s are unique in this regard, their spell slots are all of a 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.
