I've had a lot of time on my hands lately (three guesses why) so I've been putting together kind of cheat-sheets for my players in excel to (maybe) help them speed up their turns in combat.

Our tempest cleric has trouble picking what spell to use: It seems like he knows what he wants to do, but not which spell he should use to accomplish that. I categorized each spell as damage, healing, buff, debuff, area control, and a few non-combat categories. Added a few more useful details and here we are. If there's interest I can make one for other domains since the heavy lifting's already done.



edit: Of course 5 minutes after uploading I notice a mistake.

It's kinda busy. It might be helpful after getting used to it, though.

Personally, I'd rather just list everything by level as normal, but have symbols for each category.

Something like

⚔ Damage
⚡ Lightning
🌩 Thunder (or combine those two)
💚 Healing
➕ Buff
➖ Debuff
🎛 Area Control
🧠 Concentration
⏳ Ritual

(Or just have C / R for concentration / ritual)

OK, then you can do that. I did this.

Pretty cool. I’d like to see the same for all classes or all spells. It’s a tool I would definitely use as a player because it’s more or less how I pick my spells.

I've been adding other domains as people ask for them in this reddit thread (https://www.reddit.com/r/dndnext/comments/fm1x24/categorized_cleric_spell_list/) (not going to bother updating in two places). If you ask for something specific there I'll get around to it eventually.
