Spell save DC for my cleric not adding up...

[MythTrip]

Spell save DC for my wizard, few questions:
1 On top of spellbook tab, it gives overall spell save as 15 and spell attack modifier as 5. So 5 makes sense, as its WIS 3 + Proficiency 2 = 5. But overall spell save tooltip sez 8 + 3 wis +2 proficiency. Should be 13 overall spell save, but it states 15. I dont see any equipment modifiers.

2 DC for spell saves varies. I thought it would be 15DC for all spells, but examination yields
15DC Command spell WIS save
11DC Bane spell CHA save
14DC Blind spell CON save
Maybe I use my own CHA stat for a CHA spell? I thought as a wizard I use WIS for all spells.

Sorry for being a stat nerd, but if anyone knows, please help out...thank you!!

According to TT rules spells should calculate their dc based on the class that provides the spell.
Int for Wizard/arcane trickster Spells, Wis for cleric, druid, ranger, Cha for Warlock, Sorc, bard, pala.
Spell Attack is spell mod (wis/cha/int) + Proficiency
Spell save dc is 8 + spell mod + Proficiency.
Proficiency depends on your charlevel (not classlevel), and can be anything from 2-6.
As it sounds you are multiclassing, that explains the different spell DCs.
The proficiency in BG3 can get modified by difficulty for up to an additional +4.
So without further details it's hard to tell what's exactly going on. I'm also not certain in which parts BG3 might strays from the rules, especially when multiclassing, as I pretty much never like to multiclass fullcasters, bc of delayed spellprogression.

I assue you mean Cleric when you say Wizard? The DC should be calculated like you said, 8 + casting modifier + proficiency bonus. And the DC should be the same for all your spells.

Can you take a screenshot? Hard to say more without it, other than sounds like a bug...

That from the combat log? Do you have a screenshot of it?

Proficiency bonus isn't part of spell DC for one thing.

You are wrong, it is. Spell DC is calculated by 8 (the base) + proficiency bonus + casting modifier.

It is, though. There's a breakdown when you move your cursor over it
