Prayer spell for Cleric


Advice


I was wondering if anyone knows of a better version of the Prayer spell for a Cleric? Something that isn't Mythic, as I did notice that mythic prayer was a +2 bonus but we unfortunately do not play with Mythic rules.


This spell seems a bit underpowered for a level 3 spell for many reasons ie duration, bonus amount. Seems like level 2 would be a better fit.

It's weak compared to haste, if that what you are thinking but it's about on par with good hope. Harder to get bonus traded for a shorter duration larger radius.

Haste is one of the most over power spells at a given level, in the game, so you should compare it to something else.

Hi!! I thought you were dead. Msgd you awhile back but never heard back or seen you on any threads. Good to hear from you, Grand one.

Sorry about that. Holidays. I will go back and look at my dms.


Prayer is +1 to almost all d20 rolls and damage for allies and -1 for enemies with a wide radius, a 2 point swing. It is better than combining Bless and Bane and there is no save for the enemies’ effect, just spell resistance.
Haste, and next level Blessing of Fervor, are better but it isn’t bad either.
Level 9 or 10, before entering what you expect to be the important final room the cleric Blessing of Fervor’s, Wizard Haste’s, Paladin Bless’s, door opens. First round of combat cleric could use Prayer after moving in for the buff/debuff of both sides if he isn’t designed for dealing damage.


it's an aoe buff and debuff and the buff is luck, an uncommon type for none divine casters


The more people you have in your party, the better prayer is - and it affects not just attacks or just saves or just whatever; it affects pretty much everything that rolls a d20.


The best cleric buff is blessing of fervor if no one in the party is doing haste.


If you are a cleric of shelyn, iomedae or milani, you can prepare good hope.
