    Q 174
    Just to be sure. I haven't performed to find an explicit SA on this.

    The rules state that if you cast a spell (no level specified, which hence means also a cantrip) as a bonus action, you can only cast a cantrip with your action, one with a casting time of one action.

    So, you can cast a level 1+ spell with your bonus action and a cantrip with your action, but the contrary isn't true.
    Which means you can cast Spiritual Weapon and Word of Radiance in one turn, but you cannot cast Shillelagh and Faerie Fire in one turn.
    Am i correct?
