Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Picking spells is rolling the dice

Larian, can you please make the spell descriptions more comprehensive? I was watching a new player levelling up and picking spells is such a gamble with the area of effect missing from the spell descriptions. He thought Cloud of Daggers sounded great, but how big is the cloud? I know you can reload if you pick something you don’t like, but I don’t think it would take much work to indicate AoE like the regular 5E spell descriptions.

While I agree with you, I expect we won't see broader and more detailed spell descriptions until the the odds they will be substantially tweaked is greatly reduced - likely not until they are close to final release.
