Shocking Grasp causes the caster's hand to flow with electricity allowing a touch attack that does 1d6 points of electricity damage per caster level, to a maximum of 5d6.
Gameplay Notes[]
- This spell is largely overclassed by Lesser Orb of Electricity. Both spells are electric touch attacks of the same level but:
- Shocking Grasp deals more damage at caster level 2-6
- Lesser Orb of Electricity is stronger at any other caster level, is ranged and ignores spell resistance
- Of cource, specialist wizards may want to note different schools.
