Your character has two 1st level Spell Slots, and one 2nd level Spell Slot. you would like to cast Burning Hands, a 1st level Spell. you’ll expend (“use up”) one among your 1st level Spell Slots, or your 2nd level Spell squeeze order to cast Burning Hands through that slot. Easy!

As a third-level Sorcerer, Wraxan has four 1st level Spell Slots and two 2nd level Spell Slots. Therefore, each day of spell casting for Wraxan could appear as if anybody of the following:

• he finishes up wanting to cast Burning Hands an entire bunch (hey, Goblins don’t cook themselves). He casts it 3 times using three 1st Level Spell Slots, then twice more using his two 2nd Level Spell Slots (as Burning Hands gets a nice bonus when casting with a better level Spell Slot) then finally another time together with his last 1st level Spell Slot. Goblins cooked, he takes an extended rest and gets all his Spell Slots back.
• he casts Burning Hands, Mage Armour, and Witch Bolt once each, all with 1st-level Spell Slots. He finishes up not wanting to cast any longer magic that day. He takes an extended rest and gets all his Spell Slots back in the morning.
• he casts Scorching Ray twice, consuming both his 2nd level Spell Slots. He wants to cast Scorching Ray once more (Goblins don’t scorch themselves either, OK?) but is out of 2nd level Spell Slots! So he casts Burning Hands instead (as he hasn’t used any of his 1st level Spell Slots yet).

And that’s that! Many classes add an equivalent way, knowing a limited selection of their class spell lists. The living spell unleashes a skinny sheet of flames during a 15-foot cone. Each creature therein the area must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw, taking 10 (3d6) fire damage on a failed to save, or half the maximum amount of damage on a successful one.

The living spell has a plus on saving throws against spells and other magical effects. The living spell can move through an area as narrow as 1 inch wide without squeezing. Burning Hands deals slightly more damage, but its area is smaller and therefore the damage type is Fire, one of the more commonly resisted damage types.

You also don’t need all the basic spells so as a fireplace Sorcerer you are doing not need burning hands and scorching rays and fireball and wall of fireside side and investiture of fire and delayed blast fireball just cast lower-level ones in higher slots. If something is resistant to your element use hypnotic pattern/banishment etc of buff somebody else with haste/greater invisibility.
