Divine Spells and Material Components
Divine Spells and Material Components
Do divine spells use material components, or only their divine focus? My DM isn't sure, and I'm not either since in the spell descriptions it is V, S, M/DF but it can be for Wiz/Sorc or Cleric

Considering this is a Cleric/Cleric Domain only spell, and it has Verbal and Somatic components, then yeah it applies to both.
This is probably the easiest way to check. As for material components, Glyph of Warding is also a cleric only spell and it has a material component.

when it says v,s,m/df, you don't need materials as a divine caster. You just need verbal, somatic and divine focus. This just means that other classes can use this particular spell too and they need material components instead of DF. When your cleric spell would say: v,s, m, you really should use the material, no matter what the class is, as the spelldescription doesn't give you another option. But further reading of the spelldescription really helps when in doubt, since there are some spells where the DF in question is a specific item that costs you money, instead of your regular holy symbol (or the likes).
