Elemental Spell List

 Source Secrets of Magic pg. 203
The elementalist archetype uses this elemental spell list. It includes spells from all hardcover rulebooks up to this release.

You can discuss with the GM any spells from other sources you want to add to your list. As a general rule, spells with the air, earth, fire, or water trait belong on the list, including spells that add one of those traits depending on how they're cast, such as elemental zone. Spells that are general and appear on every tradition's spell list also make good candidates.
Filter Use These filters are still being tested and do not currently function properly on Mobile (Desktop View will work). Please use the Contact Us field on the main menu to report any issues.
You can apply filters, sort by, or hide columns by right-clicking them on a PC, or pressing ≡ on mobile. Your column order and visibility preferences will be kept after you switch pages.
All columns should function as the filters describe, with the following exceptions:
  • 'Between' Function: To use the 'between' function on any number column, separate each number with a space and then select the 'between' option (eg: '4 10', minus the quotations would get all results between 4 and 10).
  • True/False Columns: Check the box and set the filter as 'EqualTo' for only True results or set the filter to 'NotEqualTo' for only False results (vice versa works).
  • Heightenable Spells: This column shows whether or not a spell has other effects when heightened.
  • Traits: Use 'Contains' for one Trait at a time. Does not support multiple Traits yet.

For increased filtering power, click the 'Export to CSV' button in the top-right of the grid and further filter the data in Excel or a similar medium.
