Three-Quarters Spellcaster[edit]

In the Player's Handbook there are three progressions of spellcaster:

  • 'Full' spellcasters that can cast up to 9th level spells.
  • 'Half' spellcasters that can cast up to 5th level spells. These are spellcasters that primarily have a combat role.
  • 'Third' spellcasters that can cast up to 4th level spells. These are class archetypes that add a little sprinkle of magic without competing with other spellcasters.

The names are so-called because of their contribution towards spell slots when multiclassing (PHB p. 165).

There is design space for a 'three-quarters' spellcaster. As a 3/4 spellcaster you would be able to cast up to 7th level spells, and contribute 3/4 of their levels when determining spell slots when multiclassing.

This would be useful for homebrew classes that are primarily spellcasters, but are more competent in other areas such as combat. They would have access to some of the 'big hitter' spells (6th and 7th level) without competing with a cleric or wizard, and it frees up some space for other features.

The table also shows how many spell points the class would have if using the optional spell points rule (DMG p. 289). The 'spells known' table is used if the class must learn spells from their class spell list.

One-Quarter Spellcaster[edit]

Similarly, a 'one-quarter' spellcaster can cast 1st, 2nd or 3rd level spells: fewer even than the eldritch knight or arcane trickster. A one-quarter spellcaster contributes 1/4 of their levels to determine spell slots when multiclassing.

There is a lot of confusion regarding how to calculate the number of spell slots you get when you multiclass. This is my attempt at explaining it.

Spells Known and Prepared:
You determine what spells you know and can prepare for each class individually, as if you were a single-classed member of that class.

Dnd 5e Warlock Multiclass Spell Slots

Spell Slots from the “Spellcasting” class feature:
• Add together all your levels in the bard, cleric, druid, sorcerer, and wizard classes;
• If you have one or more levels in the artificer class, add half these levels (rounded up);
• If you have two or more levels in the paladin class, add half these levels (rounded down);
• If you have two or more levels in the ranger class, add half these levels (rounded down);
• If you have three or more levels in the fighter (eldritch knight) class, add one third these levels (rounded down);
• If you have three or more levels in the rogue (arcane trickster) class, add one third these levels (rounded down);
Use this total to determine your spell slots by consulting the “Multiclass Spellcaster: Spell Slots Per Spell Level” table (PHB p. 165).

Note regarding Warlocks:
Warlocks do not have the “Spellcasting” class feature. Their spells come from the “Pact Magic” class feature. You track warlock spell slots separately from any class with the “spellcasting” class feature. However, you can cast any spell that is available for you to cast form any class using any spell slot of the appropriate level on your list of available warlock spell slots.
