So this is going to be an ambitious task but I'll work on it nonetheless.

Basically I'll be listing all the various ways you can deal damage without spending an action, be it ongoing, added to an attack or just free damage.

Are you including bonus actions? Like spiritual hammer?

also, sanctuary can make great use of this.

If it takes an action it's not included except if it does ongoing damage, like Spiritual Hammer, because after that initial action it's actionless damage.

Spiritual weapon is a bonus action, followed by bonus action each turn. Which is why I'm asking if you'er considering a bonus action to be an "action". You should clarify.

Hmm, forgot about that. Thought it was concentration. I might make a section for BAAs, but atm no, it wouldn't count.
