Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems suggestion for spells

hi,
i'm here tomake a suggestion, i am playing a wizard and there are a lot of spells.
moreover, many spells exists in all the spell level, so i thought it would be easier to make a system where when you click on your spell, you have a little menu that opens(like in some spells to select the option) where you could choose your level.
and a second point is, for me, the fact that spells and quick inventory are at the same place, so i thought of a spell-bar on the side or above the existing one.
By the way i realy love this game continue like that and it wil soon be perfect.

Would add (for Clerics, Wizards and some subclasses) :
spells that are automatically Prepared, such as Domains (Cleric), and other bonus spells that do not need to be Prepared, should be shown differently (special colored contour) and not be "clickable" for being Prepared/Unprepared. This creates total confusion, even for veterans of D&D.

[EDIT] Small erratum : you cannot select spells that are automatically or always Prepared, so that is good. The UI needs just a little tweaking then on that aspect.
But casting spells with a higher spell slot would benefit, though, from a different UI.

Yea there needs to be an option to cast spells at higher level, instead of just giving us some spells that can. I want to cast magic missile or healing word at 2nd level dammit!!

Are you saying a single spell icon that can alternate between spell levels? Also Minsc press 'K' and put level 2 magic missile or healing word on your hotbar.

I've checked it and while there is an option for guiding bolt, thunderwave, bane. Some spells just don't have the option even though they should

Great idea.

But I suggest you make a thread in the appropriate forum since it has a better chance to be viewed by the devs.
