Hey, BlackZer0! Cool idea. When I downloaded this mod I had some questions about how it was implemented by you. Tested it myself real quick so hopefully other people will see this.
With this mod Spellsparkler gives you an abillity to cast Lightning Bolt that uses Wisdom for DC (I believe normal Lightning Bolt uses Spellcaster's ability) It does not have cooldowns (short/long rest) like other items but it does use your own lvl3 spellslot which I guess makes it balanced. In essense this mod will give you lvl3 Lightning Bolt without you needing to prepare/learn it.
Couple thing to the author: It would be cool to remove Wisdom DC and let us use spellcasters modifier instead like the real Lightning Bold, as well as let us use the spell once per Long Rest since its quite a powerful spell. Also If anyone had issues with loading the mod into BG3modloader, its because the mod is also packed into a folder which prevents BG3modloader from loading it, just grab the mod out of the zip. Cheers.
I am new to modding and don't know about other managers. I have checked with vortex and it worked with that. if you can point me to documentation then i can look into it.
Sorry, I'm not knowledgeable about this. All I know is that it gives an error message saying that it can't be imported and that the file "might be locked by another process". No idea...
I installed your mod, only to find out the Lightning Bolt from the staff costs a spell slot as per usual, except most often magic items that give access to spells like these have these spells not cost any spell slots to use, which is the entire appeal of using such an item anyway. Right now this mod doesn't add much for a sorcerer or wizard who can pick Lightning Bolt anyway. Could you perhaps release another version of the mod that makes the Lightning Bolt from the staff not cost any spell slots but only being able to be used once per short/long rest? Or maybe even a version without any such cooldown for those that want to be truly OP early on?
lmao I had the same querry minute apart from you. IMO it does add something in a way because now you dont have to slot the spell for Wizards and Clerics
To be honest, I stand with SirGoodnight when it come to items with spells they only cost an Action point and no Spell point, but in my case it doesn't matter in anyway in combination with the infinite mod I don't lose spell points at all.
Would it be possible for you to add the spellspakler to a merchant because I took too long to do the quest and the building burned down so I'll never be able to get it.

dont find a reliable way to use spell caster ability for DC. but i can create optional files for other DC options.
