Point of clarification on CoP vs. Evasion:
- CoP applies to ALL saving throws, not just dexterity. This is a big difference.
- CoP you will still take full damage if you fail while Evasion you will take half damage.

I think the spell is better suited for Paladins because of their additional Save stacking Aura of Protection.

But I wonder how else the evaluation of the spell changes with it being accessible far earlier by casters.

My Lore Bard just acquired Circle of Power via Magical Secrets after turning level 14. Sadly my PC will probably die during our raid of the Illithid city with the Brain, even with this help.

Find Steed has their own Circle of Power!

Magical Evasion is a better name for this.
