[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9557145, member: 54629"] So you would be fine with your PCs having Arcane Burst as a custom spell? Bear in mind that it deals force damage and can be used as either a ranged or melee attack. It is far more versatile than any other cantrip. If we’re talking game fiction here, this is something that every apprentice wizard can cast! Autocorrect for the win! LOL. That is why I phrased my initial query the way I did. I’ll reiterate. Let’s say you are running a game in which there is an evoker PC with a backstory that they attended the prestigious Evoker Academy. Let’s say you decide to have an adventure where the party interacts with other graduates and/or current students from the Evoker Academy. If you decide to use the official apprentice wizard and Evoker wizard stat blocks as written to represent those NPCs, you now have made it so the PC wizard is the only one who attended Evoker Academy but didn’t learn how to do an Arcane Burst. Are you OK with that? I’m not. [/QUOTE]
