Casting Time 1 bonus action

Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute
Components V, S

You create a magical field around you that causes your foe’s attacks to miss you and mysteriously veer toward other targets. Any creature which targets you with a melee or ranged attack must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, every attack that creature makes against you has disadvantage. On a miss, the attack is redirected to another target you choose. If a melee attack is deflected, the new target must be a creature both adjacent to you and within the attack’s reach. If a ranged attack is deflected, the new target must be both adjacent to you and within the attack’s range. If no eligible target exists, the attack misses. For the duration, you can use your reaction to redirect a deflected attack back at the attacker. Using this ability ends the spell’s duration.
