So, I'm pretty new to 5e. Currently playing a Wizard. Just hit level 2 last night so my experience with other spells has been limited. I've stuck to mainly using fire bolt and magic missle. My ace in the hole however has been to use chromatic orb when situations got rough.
Last night my DM and I were going through the spell compendium and noticed chromatic orb is not listed. I've only found it in my 5e players manual. Is this spell not to be used for any reason? Am I missing something?
Thank you in advance for any helpful info on this!!
The beta content right now only contains what can be found in the SRD. This means a lot of the content of the PHB is not available during the beta phase.

Here for now there are just the spells listed in the SRD.

Awesome. Sorry for the dumb question! I just didn't want to be using anything that I shouldn't. Cheers! :)
No worries! :)

A conversation regarding loaded content in dndbeyond from 2017. I found this thread today in 2024. Chromatic Orb is still missing it seems.
Chromatic Orb is not in the SRD so it is not available for free. You will need to purchase the Player's Handbook to have access to it.
Lightning Strike - A rebranded Fire Bolt for Wizards & Sorcerers.
Spirit Bomb - A holy fireball for Clerics, Paladins, & Divine Soul Sorcerers!
Sword Dancer - A Cleric subclass specifically for the Drow goddess Eilistraee.
Quicksilver & The Scarlet Witch - A pair of magical firearms for your Gunslinger or Artificer.
Ah, I see. I guess buying it now is a bad idea with 2024 coming out and no upgrade path mentioned from digital even to 2024 so I guess I wait.
Thank you very much for your feedback.
