Spell scaling never works for me.  Can anyone see what error I am making?

Only a moderator will be able to see your homebrew, but I can talk you through it. First, I need to ask:

1. Is this a Cantrip or a Leveled spell?
2. What is it that is supposed to scale?

It is a healing cantrip.  Does 1d6 at 1st, 2d6 at 5th, etc.

 Okay. The easiest thing to do is to make a spell based on Fire Bolt and just alter it. Make another spell based off of Cure Wounds just to see what the modifiers are so you can convert the Fire Bolt based spell to heal instead of burn. You can delete the Copy_of_Cure Wounds when you’re done.

But as a side note, your proposed spell is absolute broken in concept. You are making a Cantrip that is categorically better than Cure Wounds and will make combat pointless. I can tell you how to do it, but I will also tell you that it’s not a great idea IMO. Just sayin’.

It is for a specific character.  The trade off is that they have no offensive abilities. 

Hey, I made a suggestion. You are by no means expected or require to take the suggestion. It’s your D&D, do it your way.

Give my tips on the homebrew a try, and if you still need help just post back here.

 Looks like it has to be 'additional points' instead of 'additional count'.  Works now.  Thanks for the help.
