Spirit Guardians | Baldurs Gate 3 Wiki

Enemies can only be damaged by this spell once per turn. You can't simply walk in and out of range to do multiple tics of damage.

That said: this spell is incredible. Slap some extra mobility on your cleric and watch them send goblin after goblin to meet Jesus.

Idk how to say it in english but : does this spell prevent the bonus of Shar's spear of evening to apply ?

Can you walk into an enemy to damage him, walk away and back in and damage him Again in one turn?

So polearms have 2.5m range, this has 3 :)
Sentinel, spirit guardians and polearm master, here we go.

One level of sorcerer to grab storm sorcery and you can cast this then fly over the battlefield and apply radiating orb and good damage to everything you touch. Great way to deal with any group of spread out attack roll based enemies. Basically let's you ignore weak melee attackers like goblins.
Plus the sorcerer level can let you pick up shield and magic missile which don't care if you dumped charisma.

Spirit Guardian seems fairly useless.

Worth noting that the spell can also be acquired via bard’s magical secrets

Halsin has a few spells by default, even if you respec him. One of them is misty step. Respec/multi class him into a heavy armor cleric and you have a teleporting spirit tank with 9m of movement thanks to wood elf.

I put this and warden of vitality on my lore bard, goes hard. Walking aoe damage/heal turret depending on if you're friendly or not

Works well with extra action mobility like misty step or jump (if you have str) .
Polearm/staff charge is also nice but it's an action.

Get on top of a pack of mobs with a heavy armor cleric and you'll get plenty of warcaster attacks of opportunity or shield/miss procs/reactions.

In a certain act, without spoiling, you can use this to detect certain enemies before they are enemies as they will move away from the AOE knowing they will take damage from it!

Casting Sanctuary on the caster ends Spirit Guardians

While I like this spell i generally find wall of fire (from light cleric) and bless to be better, they reduced AOE radius really hurt it. It’s definitely a great spell but I don’t think the nerf was needed. Bless is still just as amazing as in tabletop.

Submit

can you get this spell as a subclass spell on another class later in levels? id love to have a fighter or paladin with this spell would be amazing fun with boots of speed or teleport into a load of mobs hit and hit em with a weapon. Been looking into a hybrid Fighter Cleric but the you just cant get the right mix. Am only level 6 so am hoping i can down the line.

They nerfed this spell into the ground. 1 minute duration instead of 10 minutes, reduced range. My poor boy.

Submit

Casting it using higher spell levels slots increases the damage. Not at home so unfortunately I can’t tell you how much it is increased by per level.

Oath of the Crown :)

So do Tempest and Light not get this spell?

It's funny how stupidly strong this is. You can cast this on yourself pop a speed potion and run into undead enemies. They die almost immediately. For every other type of enemy however they're just going to take a solid chuck of damage. And that's still pretty good. If you're not building a concentration shadowheart, The spell is a must-have. Hell even if you are, there's still a very solid argument to keep this around.

Im new to Baldurs Gate. How can I get this spell on Shadowheart for example?
