Foresight
DivinationYou touch a willing creature and bestow a limited ability to see into the immediate future. For the duration, the target can't be surprised and has advantage on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws. Additionally, other creatures have disadvantage on attack rolls against the target for the duration. This spell immediately ends if you cast it again before its duration ends.

Player Guide
Cast this on your party's primary damage dealer or tank before a major encounter to dramatically increase their effectiveness. The advantage on attack rolls compounds with other accuracy bonuses, while advantage on saves and ability checks provides unmatched defensive and utility scaling. The 8-hour duration and concentration requirement mean you should cast it during downtime before anticipated combat, not in the middle of battle. Combined with other buffs like haste or bless, your recipient becomes nearly unstoppable.

DM Tips
Foresight on a PC before a boss fight can trivialize the encounter—consider the pacing implications and adjust difficulty accordingly. Remember it requires concentration, so the caster cannot cast another concentration spell, and the recipient loses all benefits if they're silenced or lose concentration.
