Arrow of Death

An engulfing Black arrow streaks toward a target within range and bursts in a spray of necrotic energy. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 4d10 Necrotic damage immediately and 2d8 Force damage at the end of its next turn. On a miss, the arrow covers the target with black sand for half as much of the initial damage and no damage at the end of its next turn.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage (both initial and later) increases by 1d10 and 1d8 for each slot level above 5th.
