Hey! I had two quick questions about Poison Spray.
1) In taking the Feat "Wood Elf Magic" from Xanthar's, you gain a single use version of "Longstrider" and "Pass Without Trace," as well as a Druid cantrip of your choice. "Poison Spray" isn't unique to Druids, but is available to Druids. Could this be chosen as a part of "Wood Elf Magic?"
2) "Wood Elf Magic" states that Wisdom is the spellcasting ability modifier when casting these spells. As a Rogue, I have proficiency in Intelligence and Dexterity. If the DC to resist Poison Spray equals 8 + your spellcasting ability modifier + your proficiency bonus + any special modifiers, does that mean for me, with only +2 Wisdom and proficiencies in Dex and Int, would have a DC to resist of 8+2+0? Or does proficiency bonus always apply, even if you are not proficient in the stat in question, in this case Wisdom, making it 8+2+3?
1) Yes, any cantrip that is on the druid spell list counts as a "druid cantrip", even if other classes can cast it too.
2) The game doesn't have generic proficiency "In Intelligence" or "In Dexterity". You're probably thinking about the proficiency in saving throws, which is not relevant for spell save DCs.. The DC to resist Poison Spray equals 8 + your wisdom ability modifier + your proficiency bonus like it says,

Also note, proficiency bonus is entirely based on character level, not class level. That is, if you are a 10th level druid, your proficiency bonus is +4. If you are a 10th level Rogue, it is also +4. But if you are a Druid 10/Rogue 10, then your proficiency bonus is +6 for being 20th level, not +8.

Very cool! Thank you! That is super good news!

Interesting. I was considered a potential multiclass dip, but hadn't considered that. Good to note!
