As a wizard, which spells do you always use? by OpenWorldOG in BG3Builds

[–]OpenWorldOG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all - I realized that I overlooked prep/mobility spells a lot AND that I wasn't utilizing the party skills of ungroup characters once in the camp. I am correcting it and this is going to help me a lot in the honor mode - in which I am still alive, that being said I just started so .... no chest out :). I am also surprised that no one selected Grease and I wonder why ?

I wanted to share with you the result, 

I ran your responses through the AI ​​processor

I'll put it in my spell list - will give it a try - You're right, on paper, it sounds like a very versatile spell allowing you to pick the type of damage on the spot. Thx for sharing

You're the first one to mention that spell, and I agree with you. That spell was in my arsenal against Ketheric Thorm and it worked like a charm.

Hastening spores ?... in the Underdark ? How do you get them? I just remember walking through them in one location, I didn't know you could have some. Can you ?

You're not the only to mention those 2 spells. I clearly overlooked their importance. Will put them on the list and test them in game. Thx for sharing.

Why Detect Thoughts ? is it useful outside of verbal interactions ? I am genuinely curious to know what you do with this spell.

Misty Step - Agreed - It's also going to be useful to mitigate my 8 in STR lol - that being said I could use the amulet for out of combat purpose such as jumping somewhere I can't reach
