What are the limitations of Magic missile?

The limitations of the Magic Missile spell (primarily in D&D) include requiring line of sight to a visible, valid creature target, having relatively low damage per dart compared to other spells of similar level (though it always hits), and its force damage type rarely benefits from specific elemental bonuses, although it bypasses most resistances and defenses. It also often uses a single damage roll for all missiles, and some older editions had confusing targeting or duration rules, but modern versions are clearer.

While often Force in Dungeons & Dragons (D&D 5e), the specific damage type can vary slightly by game: in Diablo, it's often Arcane, and in older RPGs like NetHack, it's a distinct non-elemental magical damage.

Is a magic missile a guaranteed hit?

Yes, in Dungeons & Dragons, Magic Missile always hits its target as an "automatic hit" because it requires no attack roll, but it can be blocked or negated by specific spells like Shield or Counterspell, or by the target having total cover or magical protection like force resistance. It's a reliable low-damage spell, delivering 1d4+1 force damage per dart, making it great for finishing off foes or triggering effects on a "hit" (like Assassin rogues) without needing to roll to hit.
