Notes to Table 25

1 Spell effects are arranged according to the eight schools of magic listed in Chapter 7 of the Player’s Handbook. Individual effects are explained below.

2 Base Difficulty: A spell’s difficulty number determines the spell’s preparation time, casting time, and other miscellaneous characteristics, such has how powerful the magic appears to be when a detect magic spell is used. Other factors, such as caster level, range, duration, and area of effect, influence a spell’s final difficulty number (see page 133).

3 Base Duration: A spell uses its base duration unless the caster increases the difficulty (see Table 32). Some spells have a base duration of either one round or instantaneous (1 round/Inst.), depending on how they are used.

4 This is what the spell usually affects, see Table 29 for details.

5 Creature or Object: The spell works on creatures or objects.

6 Creature or Area: The spell works on creatures or areas.
