Magical items that had magic built into them as part of their construction could not be permanently dispelled by this spell , but they could be made temporarily nonmagical for a short time . The chance to dispel an effect was based on the difference in level between the caster of " dispel " and the caster / creator / inherent power of the target . This spell could be cast in one of three ways , as chosen by the caster : The older versions of this spell did a combination of all three of the above uses : acting like targeted dispel over the entire area of effect on each creature or object ( including those worn or carried ) and possibly counterspelling any casting being done in the area of effect at that instant . The post Second Sundering version of the spell was very simple and functioned mostly like the targeted dispel . Targeting a creature , object or magical effect within 120 feet of the same level as the spell was cast with ( its power grew if it was cast with a higher spell level ) would dispel it out right . If the dispel magic was of lower level then the spell it target the spell could try and resist the dispelling attempt . Components .
