Spell: Searing Smite Guide for 5th Edition (5e) D&D (DND)

 

Overview

 This post discusses the 5e Searing Smite spell from D&D. Our purpose in this post is to discuss their overviews, levels, or durations. Let’s get started.
 

You can cast Searing Smite as a bonus action as a first-level evocation spell. It causes your next successful weapon attack to deal 1d6 additional fire damage and set the target on fire.

At the start of each of its turns, the target makes a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC.

When it fails, 1d6 fire damage is dealt with. After it saves, it doesn’t suffer damage and the effect ends. As well as actions, the environment can also extinguish the flames.

A smite is a cool spell, but a searing smite is the opposite: a spell that deals a great deal of damage upfront. There are also many types of damage that are resisted by fire.  

Furthermore, when cast at higher levels only the smite’s initial damage increase, not the 1d6 fire damage the creature take at the beginning of its turn.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is Searing Smite 5e?

The next time you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack during the spell’s duration, your weapon flares with white-hot intensity, and the attack deals an extra 1d6 fire damage to the target and causes the target to ignite in flames.

At the start of each of its turns, until the spell ends, the target must make a Constitution saving throw.

On a failed save, it takes 1d6 fire damage. On a successful save, the spell ends. If the target or a creature within 5 feet of it uses an action to put out the flames, or if some other effect douses the flames (such as the target being submerged in water), the spell ends.

2. Does searing smite work once?

The once, but if you miss with the weapon attack roll, you can continue concentration so you can use it next turn.

The concentration duration also affects how long the ongoing damage lingers, IIRC. The smite spells have very low damage.
