Is Revivify Good?

Overall Rating: Sky Blue. This means that revivify is an amazing spell. If you do not take this spell your character would not be optimized.

Overall Notes: Every party needs a party member with revivify. The nature of D&D is such that PC deaths happen fairly easily, so your friends will be looking to you to save them from that fate. Because each round of combat is 6 seconds, a party member that dies during combat can typically be revived within 1 minute. Make sure you've got diamonds worth 300 gp on you if you're planning on stocking this spell.
