Witch Bolt is a spell in the fifth edition of the Dungeons and Dragons role-playing game. It is a ranged spell that allows the caster to create a beam of crackling, blue energy that arcs towards a target within range. The spell requires an attack roll to hit the target, and if successful, it deals lightning damage to the target on a hit. The unique aspect of Witch Bolt is that it creates a sustained arc of lightning between the caster and the target. As long as the caster maintains concentration on the spell, they can use their action in subsequent rounds to automatically deal damage to the target without requiring additional attack rolls. This sustained damage occurs at the start of the caster's turn, and the target takes the same amount of lightning damage as the initial hit.
"He's just such a funny guy. He has the best energy and made sure we were always doing good and he would give us such great advice," Alvarez said.
But when the Institute invites Andy to return as a counselor, he finds himself in charge of the greenest and most awkward wannabe magicians, and having to deal with his former partner and current arch rival, Kristina Darkwood Gillian Jacobs , who s also a counselor. DeVine is known for making audiences laugh in the hit comedy series Workaholics and in films like Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates and Isn t It Romantic.
This sustained damage occurs at the start of the caster's turn, and the target takes the same amount of lightning damage as the initial hit. However, if the caster's concentration is broken, such as by taking damage or failing a concentration saving throw, the Witch Bolt spell ends. Additionally, the caster can choose to end the spell at any time as a bonus action.

Despite the potential for sustained damage, Witch Bolt has a limited range of 30 feet. Witch Bolt can be a powerful spell in the right situation, especially if the caster can maintain concentration for multiple rounds. It can be particularly effective against single, high-value targets, allowing the caster to continuously deal damage without needing to make additional attack rolls. However, it also has limitations and risks, such as the need to maintain concentration and the limited range of the spell. Overall, Witch Bolt is a unique and versatile spell in the D&D 5e system, offering players the chance to harness the power of lightning and deal sustained damage to their foes..
Reviews for "The Haunting Power of Witch Bolt: Roleplaying Opportunities in Dungeons and Dragons 5e"
1. Jessica - 2/5 - I was really disappointed with the "Witch bolt" spell in DnD Beyond. While it initially seems like a powerful and cool spell, it quickly becomes underwhelming. The fact that you have to maintain concentration every turn to deal damage really limits its usefulness, especially considering the low amount of damage it actually does. In my experience, it often gets canceled before its full potential is realized, making it a waste of a spell slot. I would much rather choose a different spell that offers more consistent, dependable damage.
2. Mark - 3/5 - I found "Witch bolt" to be a decent spell in DnD Beyond, but its limited range and damage make it hard to justify using over other options. The fact that it only has a range of 30 feet means you have to be right next to your target to use it effectively, putting you in a vulnerable position. Additionally, the damage it deals each turn is not very impressive, especially when compared to other spells of a similar level. Overall, I wouldn't say it's a terrible spell, but it definitely falls short compared to other options available to spellcasters.
3. Sarah - 2/5 - I was really excited to try out "Witch bolt" in DnD Beyond, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. The spell seems great on paper, with its ability to deal lightning damage and potentially chain to other targets. However, in practice, I found it to be highly situational and not very reliable. The fact that it requires a ranged spell attack roll means you have a chance to miss, wasting your spell slot. Additionally, the damage it deals is not very impressive, and the potential for the spell to end prematurely due to a concentration check is frustrating. Overall, I would recommend looking for other spells that offer more consistent damage output and utility.
