Death Ward is an Abjuration Level 4 spell found in Baldur's Gate 3.

Class and Race Restrictions

Death Ward can only be used by the following classes / subclasses:

  • Bard (College of Lore Level 6 Magical Secrets, or Level 10 Magical Secrets)
  • Cleric

Additional Death Ward Information

If cast by a Cleric, the spell must remain on the Cleric's prepared spell list. If it is removed while the buff is active, this will cancel the buff.

If a creature is downed in their turn, all of their actions are restored when Death Ward triggers.

Death ward is triggered by each impact, so multi impact spells such as Magic Missile or Scorching Ray can effectively negate the effects of the buff.
