I'm building a 4th level bard and wanted to clarify how many spells of which level I should be able to know.
Based on what I'm seeing regarding learning spells on leveling up, I think the below table is correct in regards to how many spells of a given level could be known at a given bard level.
Character Level
Spells Known
Spell count by spell Level
1st
4
all 1st level
2nd
5
all 1st level
3rd
6
Up to two 2nd level by replacing one 1st level 4 1st level 2 2nd level
4th
7
Up to four 2nd level by replacing one 1st level 3 1st level 4 2nd level
Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
You know four 1st-level spells of your choice from the bard spell list.
The Spells Known column of the Bard table shows when you learn more bard spells of your choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots, as shown on the table. For instance, when you reach 3rd level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the bard spells you know and replace it with another spell from the bard spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.
Yes, that is correct, though "all 1st level" was confusing. Would have been more clear to say "4 1st level spells" at level 1 and "5 1st level spells" at level 2.

I sing to life and to its tragic beauty To pain and to strife, but all that dances through me The rise and the fall, I've lived through it all!
