Candle's Fickle Flame

The next time you make a ranged weapon attack during the spell’s duration, the weapon’s ammunition transforms into a thin wax candle with lit wick, the projectile is the length of a regular arrow. Make the attack roll as normal. The target takes 4d8 fire damage on a hit or half as much damage on a miss instead of the weapon’s normal damage.

Whether you hit or miss, the burning candle explodes into molten hot wax shrapnel, each creature within 10 feet of the target must make a Dexterity saving throw. Each of these creatures takes 2d8 fire damage on a failed save, or half as such damage on a successful one.
