Notes

• As this is a ritual spell it is free to cast outside of combat and remains until death or a Long Rest; as such if you have someone in your party who can cast this you should have it cast on all your party members at all times.
  • If cast by a  Druid or  Wizard, this spell must remain Prepared by the party member who cast it; removing Longstrider from the caster's Prepared Spells list will immediately remove the buff from all party members whom the caster applied it to. If applied by using (not scribing) a scroll, the caster does not need to keep this spell Prepared to maintain the buff.
• This is the only ritual spell in Baldur's Gate 3 that has upcasting benefits. The game does allow selecting a higher level spell slot when ritual casting this spell out of combat, though all this does is allow applying the effect to multiple targets more quickly.
• The incantations for Longstrider are properum, citium (both "quick"), and ocior ("faster").
