| **Targeted Dispel:** One object, creature, or spell is the target of the dispel magic spell. You make one dispel check (1d20 + your [[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]]) and compare that to the spell with highest [[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]] (DC = 11 + the spell’s [[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]]). If successful, that spell ends. If not, compare the same result to the spell with the next highest [[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]]. Repeat this process until you have dispelled one spell affecting the target, or you have failed to dispel every spell. | **Targeted Dispel:** One object, creature, or spell is the target of the dispel magic spell.

| For example, a 7th-level caster casts dispel magic, targeting a creature affected by [[stoneskin]] ([[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]] 12th) and [[fly]] ([[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]] 6th). The [[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]] check results in a 19. This check is not high enough to end the stoneskin (which would have required a 23 or higher), but it is high enough to end the fly (which only required a 17). Had the dispel check resulted in a 23 or higher, the stoneskin would have been dispelled, leaving the fly intact. Had the dispel check been a 16 or less, no spells would have been affected. | For example, a 7th-level caster casts dispel magic, targeting a creature affected by [[stoneskin]] ([[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]] 12th) and [[fly]] ([[priority:magic#caster_level|Caster Level]] 6th).
