You need to hear what’s going on. A hand
motion or two, and the voices become louder
to your ears.
You cause an amplification of all sounds
within the spell’s area. This decreases
the DC to hear those sounds by 20.
Those creatures within the spell’s area
do not notice the increased amplification.
Thus, anyone whose voice is
amplified remains unaware of the
increase in volume.
The spell can be centered on a creature,
and the effect then radiates from
the creature and moves as it moves.
An unwilling creature can attempt a
Will save to negate the spell and can
apply spell resistance, if any. Items
in a creature’s possession receive the
benefits of saves and spell resistance,
but unattended objects and points in
space do not. Amplify counters and
dispels silence, and is also countered
and dispelled by silence.
