Unless noted otherwise, an innate spell of 1st Level or higher is always cast at its lowest possible level and can’t be cast at a higher level. If a monster has a cantrip where its level matters and no level is given, use the monster’s challenge rating.</s><s></s><s>An innate spell can have Special rules or restrictions. For example, a Drow Mage can innately cast the Levitate spell, but the spell has a “self only” restriction, which means that the spell affects only the Drow Mage.</s><s></s><s>A monster’s innate Spells can’t be swapped out with other Spells. If a monster’s innate Spells don’t require Attack rolls, no Attack bonus is given for them.</s>Edit: look at that, so the (Psionics) does make a difference.Innate Spellcasting (Psionics)A monster that casts spells using only the power of its mind has the psionics tag added to its Spellcasting or Innate Spellcasting special trait. This tag carries no special rules of its own, but other parts of the game might refer to it. A monster that has this tag typically doesn't require any components to cast its spells.Nevermind then</blockquote>
