You touch one creature, imbuing the target with magic that enhances and empowers its body. Choose either Strength or Dexterity to empower. Until the spell ends, the target gains the following benefits:
- The target has advantage on ability checks that use the chosen ability score and on saving throws to maintain concentration.
- The target's speed increases by 10 feet.
- The target has advantage on weapon attacks.
- When the target takes the Attack action, it gains a bonus to the damage rolls of each weapon attack it makes as part of that action. The bonus is equal to your spellcasting modifier (minimum +1).
Not sure why we are going all the way to 4th level to provide an advantage on an attack roll and a couple points of damage. I plan to just house rule a +1 to hit and damage with bull's strength and +1 to AC with the cat's grace etc. Might make the duration shorter though but doesn't seem to break things.
Enhance Ability doesn't grant advantage on attack rolls, only ability checks. For a good comparison on Enhance Body's power, look at greater invisibility, another 4th-level spell with a similar power-level and combat function.
sorry I should have clarified that I dislike any of those being non-combat. Seems silly given someone is obviously stronger and strength adds to damage in all other cases. Would rather they just make it higher level if it's game breaking. silly ruling for balance
