Cantrips At 1st level, you know one cantrip of your choice from the 3 schools Evocation, Necromancy and Transmutation. You learn additional Arcanist cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Arcanist table. Spell Slots The Arcanist table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your arcanist spells of 1st level and higher You can only cast spells matching your elemental affinity. To cast one of these arcanist spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell burning hands and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast burning hands using either slot. Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the these 3 schools; Evocation, Necromancy and Transmutation. The Spells Known column of the arcanist table shows when you learn more arcanist spells of your choice you can only learn damaging spells that match at least one of your elemental affinities. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 3rd level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the Arcanist spells you know and replace it with another spell from one of the 3 schools; Evocation, Necromancy and Transmutation, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots. Spellcasting Ability Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your arcanist spells, since the power of your magic relies on your ability to project your will into the world. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for an arcanist spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one. Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier Spellcasting Iniate You don't need a focus or components to cast spells.
