They can simply wait while a spell caster exhausts both their time, resources, and patience looking for them, before casually sauntering past them in whatever discreet form they please.D&D 5e Druid multiclassing guide featured image is a combination of art from Wizards of the Coast in the Monster Manual and Guildemasters’ Guide to Ravnica. These gaps could be the perfect time for a Druid to sneak past them. If, instead, they're using ritual casting for Detect Magic, they'll be continuously occupied and there will be 10 minute gaps between each casting. A creature using the spell in this way is certain to run out of spell slots after a short period of time. It's a pretty steep cost for a spell caster to continuously consume 6th level spell slots to cast True Seeing or 1st level spells slot to cast Detect Magic just in the off chance that a druid is nearby. The basic implication here is that Wildshape is not an effective tool against magic users that are actively looking for an intruder. If you sense magic in this way, you can use your action to see a faint aura around any visible creature or object in the area that bears magic, and you learn its school of magic, if any. Therefore it can be detected by Detect Magic, which unambiguously states the following:įor the duration, you sense the presence of magic within 30 feet of you. Starting at 2nd Level, you can use your action to magically assume the shape of a beast that you have seen before. Needless to say this spell comes at a high cost and is the ultimate tool for finding a magically concealed intruder.

That is, it will detect spells in progress, spell-like powers of monsters, and permanent enchantments on scrolls, and standard magic weapons. is that Detect Magic is equivalent to "Detect Spells, Spell-like Effects and Enchantments". the consensus in groups I have played in. In another answer by Neil Slater, this excerpt seems applicable: My reason for asking is that Detect Magic seems to be a relatively low-level spell and thus makes Wild Shape (for espionage, surveillance, scouting, etc.) somewhat less dependable. It seems to me that the ability is a sort of innate or supernatural ability, and whether it is "magical" or not is somewhat ambiguous. In portions of the question and its answers, there seems to be various interpretations of how Detect Magic might work (or not). I read through the question, Detecting Wild Shape with a Mythal, but I've no idea what a Mythal is. It appears that this is a sort of debated subject, as to how and whether Detect Magic works on it or not. I'd like to know in what ways it can be detected by NPCs (or even fellow PCs). and am playing a druid fond of Wild Shape.
