Subclass featureEFAp. 162024Artificer

Wield Destructive Power from Afar

An Artillerist specializes in using magic to hurl energy, projectiles, and explosions on a battlefield.

Tools of the Trade

You gain the following benefits.

Ranged Weaponry

You gain proficiency with Martial Ranged weapons.

Tool Proficiency

You gain proficiency with Woodcarver's Tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of Artisan's Tools of your choice.

Artillerist Spells

Artificer LevelSpells
3Shield, Thunderwave
5Scorching Ray, Shatter
9Fireball, Wind Wall
13Ice Storm, Wall of Fire
17Cone of Cold, Wall of Force

Eldritch Cannon

Using Smith's Tools or Woodcarver's Tools, you can take a Magic action to create a Small or Tiny Eldritch Cannon in an unoccupied space on a horizontal surface within 5 feet of yourself. You determine its appearance, including whether you carry it or not (and your choice of legs or wheels, for the latter). It disappears if it is reduced to 0 Hit Points or after 1 hour. You can dismiss it early as a Magic action.

Once you create a cannon, you can't do so again until you finish a Long Rest or expend a spell slot to create one. You can have only one cannon at a time and can't create one while you already have one.
