Mass Healing Word
- Level 3 Conjuration Spell
- Bard (Optional), Cleric
Mass Healing Word is a spell that should not be missing in any party. It only requires a bonus action and can then regenerate the HP of its allies.
In Dungeons & Dragons, you can choose up to 6 allied targets to gain the effect of the healing spell, where 6 people often make up an entire group of adventurers.
In Baldur’s Gate 3, however, you do not have to make a choice about which targets will be healed. Because in the video game, all (!) allied creatures within a radius of 18 meters around the healing player are included, no matter how many are in that vicinity. Due to this change, healing that could be 6d4 (for the 6 allies) + the Spellcasting modifier can in some situations also take on a value of 10d4, 15d4, or actually limitless rolls.
Anyone fighting with the group and located in that substantial radius will be healed. This makes the spell and the casting bard or cleric a truly powerful team component.
Especially in fights where you are fighting alongside another team (such as at the Druid Grove or in the Towers of Sunrise) this strong effect can be particularly noticeable.
