You replace one energy type for another by altering the spell’s formula as you cast it.When you cast a spell with a spell slot and the spell requires a saving throw, you can change the saving throw from one ability score to another of your choice of the same type. Damaging spell saves can be changed to a Str, Con or Dex save, and non-damaging spell saves can be changed to an Int, Wis or Cha save.Once you change a damage type or a saving throw in this way, you can’t make the same change again until you finish a short or long rest.AUGMENTED CASTINGAt 6th level, you learn to augment spells in a variety of ways. When you cast a spell with a spell slot, you can expend one additional spell slot to augment its effects for this casting, mixing the raw stuff of magic into your spell to amplify it. Expending the additional spell slot in this way requires the use of a bonus action.The effect depends on the spell slot you expend.An additional 1st-level spell slot can increase the spell’s raw destructive power. If you roll damage for the spell when you cast it, increase the damage per dice by +2. Damage is of the same type as the base spell. If the spell can deal damage on more than one turn, it deals this extra damage only on the turn you cast the spell.An additional 2nd-level spell slot can increase the spell’s range. If the spell’s range is at least 30 feet, it becomes 300ft.An additional 3rd-level spell slot can increase the spell’s potency. Increase the spell’s save DC by 2.</blockquote>
