Is Darkvision Good?
Overall Rating: Green. This means that darkvision is a good spell.
Overall Notes: Essential if you or party members don’t have natural Darkvision and want to navigate without a torch. At a 2nd-level spell slot, the cost for this effect is quite steep.
Class Specific Ratings for Darkvision
Arcane Trickster rogue: * If your race doesn’t come with Darkvision and your allies can’t give it to you in some way, you should take this spell. Fighting from the shadows enables your Sneak Attacks, but how are you gonna do that if you can’t see?
