All about FvS Spells

Hey all,
This is the same thread from the Beta board, but I wanted to save it before it went away. I know once the class comes out there will be a lot of questions about this stuff...

Spell slots gained per level:
FvS uses the Sorcerers progression, which is:

Code:

1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th 9th 1 2* -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 2 3* -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 3 4* -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 4 4* 1* -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 5 4* 2* -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 6 4* 2* 1* -- -- -- -- -- -- 7 4* 3* 2* -- -- -- -- -- -- 8 4* 3* 2* 1* -- -- -- -- -- 9 4* 4* 3* 2* -- -- -- -- -- 10 4* 4* 3* 2* 1* -- -- -- -- 11 4* 4* 4* 3* 2* -- -- -- -- 12 4* 4* 4* 3* 2* 1* -- -- -- 13 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 2* -- -- -- 14 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 2* 1* -- -- 15 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 2* -- -- 16 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 2* 1* -- 17 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 3* 2* -- 18 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 3* 2* 1* 19 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 3* 3* 2* 20 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 3* 3* 3* 3*

Spell DC for spells is: (10 + Spell Level + Wisdom Mod)=DC
In order to learn and cast a spell, the Favored Soul needs Charisma Mod of at least (10 + spell level)

Favored Souls have access to these spells:

Code:

Level 1 Code: Bane Bless Cause Fear Command Cure Light Wounds Divine Favor Doom Inflict Light Wounds Nightshield Nimbus of Light Obscuring Mist Protection from Evil Shield of Faith Summon Monster I Level 2 Code: Aid Bear's Endurance Close Wounds Cure Moderate Wounds Deific Vengeance Eagle's Splendor Find Traps Hold Person Inflict Moderate Wounds Lesser Restoration Owl's Wisdom Remove Paralysis Resist Energy Soundburst Spawn Screen Summon Monster II Level 3 Code: Aid, Mass Bestow Curse Blindness Contagion Cure Serious Wounds Dispel Magic Glyph of Warding Inflict Serious Wounds Magic Circle Against Evil Prayer Protection from Energy Remove Blindness Remove Curse Remove Disease Searing Light Summon Monster III Water Breathing Level 4 Code: Chaos Hammer Cure Critical Wounds Death Ward Dismissal Divine Power Freedom of Movement Holy Smite Inflict Critical Wounds Neutralize Poison Order's Wrath Panacea Poison Recitation Restoration Shield of Faith, Mass Summon Monster IV Symbol of Flame Unholy Blight Level 5 Code: Break Enchantment Cure Light Wounds, Mass Flame Strike Greater Command Inflict Light Wounds, Mass Protection from Elements Raise Dead Slay Living Spell Resistance Stalwart Pact Summon Monster V Symbol of Pain True Seeing Level 6 Code: Banishment Bear's Endurance, Mass Blade Barrier Bull's Strength, Mass Cometfall Create Undead Cure Moderate Wounds, Mass Eagle's Splendor, Mass Greater Dispel Magic Greater Glyph of Warding Harm Heal Heroes Feast Inflict Moderate Wounds, Mass Owl's Wisdom, Mass Summon Monster VI Symbol of Fear Symbol of Persuasion Undeath to Death Word of Recall Level 7 Code: Cure Serious Wounds, Mass Destruction Greater Restoration Inflict Serious Wounds, Mass Restoration, Mass Resurrection Spell Resistance, Mass Summon Monster VII Symbol of Stunning Symbol of Weakness Level 8 Code: Cure Critical Wounds, Mass Death Pact Death Ward, Mass Fire Storm Inflict Critical Wounds, Mass Summon Monster VIII Symbol of Death Level 9 Code: Energy Drain Implosion Heal, Mass True Resurrection Summon Monster IX

All spells have the same casting speed as a Cleric, with the same cooldowns.

Let me know if there's anything I'm leaving out.

Favored Soul spells with no save:

Two spells I think are worth getting even for a favored soul with a wisdom as a dump stat:

Blade Barrier
Destruction

A very useful list. Especially since I now know how to make those coding boxes. Unfortunately, it is mostly healing. I was hoping to go Light/Alignment :).

I compiled it for a build I made with 8 wisdom.

How did

..you make the coded box? I would like to use it for the Ghallanda guild list thread

CENTER
CODE

/CODE
/CENTER

Like that, excepts use [] around the tags.

Can leave out center and /center if you don't want it centered on screen.

You can use quote on one of our posts to see an example, that is how I figured it out from the OP's post.

I don't understand, Letrii. Why the 8 Wis and max Cha if the Cha's function is only to be able to cast the level of spell?
Isn't the Wis supposed to be the better stat to max for offensive capability?

Only if you casting spells that require saves. I only using 2 spells with saves and acceptable conditions even if they pass save.

Blade Barrier: Save is half 15d6 damage
Destruction: Save is 10d6 damage instead of dying outright

kk, got it...I don't like the thought of reducing the potential for those two spells tho...I mean, those are two of your most versatile damage spells...but going for max sp has usefulness also...hmmm

Also have max umd for arcane spells.

I thought FS has lower cooldowns.

they do not, and was confirmed by a QA rep.

Nothing about favored soul spellcasting is like sorcerers except for the SP progression. If you are seeing different it is a bug but it is not happening on the live candidate build we have.
