Description
The battle rod was developed as an alternative to the longer war staff, and has gained popularity with wandslingers across Khorvaire. The battle rod serves as a spellcasting focus and can be used by any spellcaster who can use a rod as a focus. When held in two hands, you can use the rod to cast cantrips at up to twice the standard range. However, when you cast a cantrip beyond the standard range, your attack rolls have disadvantage, and other creatures have advantage on any saving throws made against your cantrip. So a fire bolt cast using a battle rod has a range of 240 feet, but attack rolls against targets more than 120 feet away are made at disadvantage.
