You hurl a handful of lava at a creature or object within range. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 1d10 fire damage. A flammable object hit by this spell ignites if it isn't being worn or carried. If target gets hit and is wearing metallic armor, the lava melts some of it, reducing AC by 1 for 2 rounds. Additional applications will refresh the duration, but will not stack.

At Higher Levels: For every second spell slot after 1st, this spell's damage increases by 1d10, and AC reduction increases by 1.
