Force Spells[edit]

Name Description Classes
Alc Art Brd Clr Drd FvS Pal Rgr Sor Wiz War
Icon Enhancement Arcane Bolt.png
Arcane Bolt You fire a bolt of raw energy from your finger that deals 3 to 8 hit points of force damage per caster level to a single target. A successful Reflex save reduces the damage by half. This ability counts as a level 2 Wizard spell. D&D Dice: Deals 1d6+2 force damage per caster level.
  • As of Update 61 Patch 1, this uses your highest spell DC, although it still qualifies as an Evocation spell for the purpose of other effects.
Icon Arcane Pulse.png
Arcane Pulse A magical pulse of force reverberates through the target's body, dealing 3d6+6 force damage every 2 seconds for a duration of 16 seconds. This spell can stack on the target up to 5 times, increasing the damage with each stack.
  • Bug: Seems to deal a bit more damage than dice would indicate. [DDO Forums]
Arcane Tempest.gif
Arcane Tempest You create a storm of arcane energy that rains shards of force energy upon your foes. Any creatures caught within the storm take 7 to 12 per caster level in force damage every 2 seconds for a duration of 8 seconds. Targets first entering the storm may take a reflex save for half, but remaining in the storm they take damage with no saving throw. Damage progression caps at level 15 for 15 to 60 force damage. (Incorrect description. Actual damage calculates to 105 to 180 per 2 seconds) Icon Feat Past Life Artificer.png Icon Feat Past Life Sorcerer.png Icon Feat Past Life Wizard.png Icon Feat Past Life Warlock.png
Arcane Spell Chain Missiles.png
Chain Missiles A missile of magical energy darts forth and unerringly strikes its target inflicting 1d2+3 force damage. For every 2 caster levels beyond first you gain an additional missile, up to 10 missiles. After striking your target, the missiles explode outwards, striking other creatures near the primary target.

Bug: Chain Missiles shoots 1 large highly damaging magic missile at your target, which deals twice the force damage of a standard magic missile (2d2+6). Then 10 standard 1d2+3 missiles explode outwards striking randomly at nearby targets. You seem to get all 10 missiles regardless of your caster level. The magic missile damage is verified as 1d2+3.
