[QUOTE="Prism, post: 7110801, member: 9501"] I played a cleric to 10th level in a party of 4 and found it variable. We played it so that we only made the extra 1d4 when it was needed - as in a target AC or saving throw was just missed. I rarely cast it on the druid as he often didn't make attack rolls when casting spells. Whole combats could go by where barely anybody needed to roll the d4. Occasionally to turned an important miss into to hit. The rest of the party became indifferent about it. In addition due to concentration, and the fact that my cleric would fairly often be the target of attacks, the spell rarely lasted more than a round or two in a combat. I found hold person and banishment better uses of my concentration spell. Those two spells often changed the whole encounter. So in summary, standard size party, only two combat focused characters, nobody with GMW or SS - I'd say not that good a spell unless you really want the saving throw benefit for the party. Then again, for a first level spell its always worth having around [/QUOTE]
