Preparation & Spontaneous Spellcasting & Spell Types (5e Variant Rule)
From D&D Wiki
Preparation & Spontaneous Spellcasting & Spell Types[edit]
This set of variant rules are intricately connected. The first rule defines different types of spells, and the second separates the mechanics of spontaneous and preparation casters more than base 5e.
Spell Types[edit]
Spells are divided into three types: at-will, recharge, and daily. An at-will spell can be cast at-will. A recharge spell can be cast once, then the caster rolls a d6. On a 6, the caster can cast that recharge spell again. On a 5 or lower, they regain the ability to do so upon completing a short or long rest. A daily spell can be cast once, and the caster regains the ability to cast it again upon completing a long rest.
A spell must be known or prepared to be able to be cast.

All of the cantrips have been rebranded as at-will 1st-level spells. There are no longer 0th-level spells. To save space, the cantrips are not listed here.

Preparation Spellcasting[edit]
Preparation spellcasting refers to the spellcasting done by artificers, clerics, druids, paladins, and wizards. This ruleset expands upon preparation spellcasting and also grants it to rangers. Preparation casters prepare spells from a large pool available to them (usually an entire spell list, save the limitation of a spellbook for wizards).
The following changes to spell preparation mechanics have been made:
- Cantrips and other scaling of spells based off your level no longer apply. Cantrips that deal damage deal an additional die of damage (or create an additional beam for eldritch blast) when prepared as 3rd, 6th, or 9th level spells.
- You must prepare each spell using a spell slot, one for one. You no longer prepare spells based on your class level and spellcasting ability. Your spell slot progression determines how many you can prepare of each spell level. This means if you want the ability to cast the same spell multiple times, you must prepare it using multiple spell slots.
- You can prepare spells of a lower level with spell slots of the same level or of a higher level.
- Whenever you prepare a spell with a spell slot, you cast it at that level, including any benefits from casting at a higher level.
- If you prepare a recharge spell with a spell slot 3 times or greater than its native level (3rd level for 1st level spells, 6th level for 2nd level spells, and 9th level for 3rd level spells), you can cast that spell at its native level as if it was an at-will spell.
- If you prepare a daily spell with a spell slot 3 times or greater than its native level (3rd level for 1st level spells, 6th level for 2nd level spells, and 9th level for 3rd level spells), you can cast that spell at its native level as if it was a recharge spell. If you prepare a daily spell with a spell slot 4 times or greater than its native level (4th level for 1st level spells and 8th level for 2nd level spells), you can cast that spell at its native level as if it was an at-will spell.
- Extra spells granted by subclass options are automatically prepared at their native levels.

- Subclass Level 20 Features
Each level 20 subclass feature with a once per day use has this clause at the end: "Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest or if you prepared it as a 5th-level daily spell.

- Arcane Recovery
Whenever you finish a short rest, you can exchange one prepared at-will or recharge spell in your spellbook for another spell of your choice. Additionally, once on a short rest between long rests, you can replenish a used daily spell slot with a level equal to or less than half your Wizard level.
- Spell Mastery
Whenever you finish a long rest, you can prepare one additional 1st-level and 2nd-level spell in your spellbook each. A spell prepared in this way is considered an at-will spell until you take another long rest.
- Signature Spells
When you reach 20th level, choose two 3rd-level spells in your spellbook. These spells are always prepared. A signature recharge spell recharges on a roll of 3 or higher on the d6. A signature daily spell is considered a recharge spell that recharged on a roll of 6 on the d6.
Spontaneous Spellcasting[edit]
Spontaneous spellcasting refers to the spellcasting done by bards, sorcerers, warlocks, and spellcasting martial subclasses. Rangers are also spontaneous casters in base 5e, but this ruleset treats them as preparation casters. Spontaneous casters must choose spells to learn instead of preparing them.
The following changes to spontaneously cast spells have been made:
- Cantrips and other spells scale along with the spellcaster's level, as determined by this ruleset.
- You don't use spell slots. You can cast a known spell using the mechanics of that spell's type without regard to resources such as spell slots.
- Whenever you cast a known spell, you cast it at its native level.
- You can expend a your use of a recharge or daily spell to cast another spell of the same type of a lower level, even if the lower level spell has already been used.

Any at-will and recharge spells learned from your subclass's expanded spell list can be replaced at a later time and take up a daily spell known slot.
- Invocations
Whenever an invocation would allow you to cast a spell using a warlock spell slot, it instead simply allows you to cast that spell. Any reset time stated by the invocation still applies.
