S-Tier Bless is a powerful action economy multiplier that consistently increases hit chances and save success rates for your party's most important members.

Player Guide

Cast Bless on your party's primary damage dealers and most attack-reliant characters (fighters, rogues, paladins) to maximize its impact on action economy. The d4 bonus applies to both attack rolls and saving throws, making it valuable against creatures with dangerous save-based abilities. Maintain concentration carefully, as the spell scales excellently with more targets and can turn close misses into guaranteed hits when combined with other bonuses.

DM Tips

Clarify that blessed creatures can choose whether to add the d4 after seeing the roll result, as this is a key strategic element. Track concentration carefully, as Bless is a common spell that conflicts with many other concentration effects.
