[QUOTE="tommybahama, post: 8197946, member: 7017351"] Hey guys, Can someone please someone confirm the correct attack bonus for the summoned fey spirit from Tasha's [I]Summon Fey [/I]spell? I think it is either +3 😩or +6 😲 for a 5th level Druid with a 16 Wisdom. Below is the creatures stat block. Highlighted in yellow it says that the "Proficiency Bonus equals your bonus." So then I saw the text underlined in red, "[I]Melee Weapon Attack:[/I] your spell attack modifier." So I checked the PHB on DnDBeyond and it says, "Your attack bonus with a spell attack equals your spellcasting ability modifier + your proficiency bonus." Another common definition I'm finding floating around the internet is, "Your spell attack modifier is a modifier you add to attack rolls with your spells. It's calculated as your Spellcasting modifier + your Proficiency Bonus." Adding the proficiency bonus to the attack rolls would makes it a little bit better than a CR 2 polar bear, but still not better than eight CR 1/4 wolves.
