Divination - Shukenja (Priest Spell)

This 3rd-level spell is otherwise the same as the 4th-level spell of the same name.
==4th Level Text==
A divination spell is used to garner a useful piece of advice concerning a specific goal, event, or activity that will occur within a one-week period. This can be as simple as a short phrase, or it might take the form of a cryptic rhyme or omen. Unlike the augury spell, this gives a specific piece of advice. For example, if the question is “Will we do well if we venture to the third/level?” and a ter­rible troll guarding 10,000 gp and a shield +1 lurks near the entrance to the level (the DM esti­mates the party could beat the troll after a hard fight) the divination response might be: “Ready oil and open flame light your way to wealth.” In all cases, the DM controls what information is received and whether additional divinations will supply additional information. Note that if the in­formation is not acted upon, the conditions proba­bly change so that the information is no longer useful (in the example, the troll might move away and take the treasure with it).
The base chance for a correct divination is 60%, plus 1% for each experience level of the priest casting the spell. The DM makes adjust­ments to this base chance considering the actions being divined (if, for example, unusual precau­tions against the spell have been taken). If the dice roll is failed, the caster knows the spell failed. unless specific magic yielding false information is at work.
The material components of the divination spell are a sacrificial offering, incense, and the holy symbol of the priest. If an unusually impor­tant divination is attempted, sacrifice of particu­larly valuable gems, jewelry, or magical items may be required.
Notes: Common for clerics and druids (PHB).
