Volley Fire

You brandish the weapon used to cast this spell and make a ranged attack against one creature within the weapon's range. On a hit, the target suffers the weapon attack's normal effects, and you can cause the ammunition to burst forth from the target to a different creature of your choice that you can see within 5 feet of it. The second creature takes fire damage equal to your spellcasting ability modifier.

This spell's damage increases when you reach certain levels. At 5th level, the melee attack deals an extra 1d4 fire damage to the target on a hit, and the fire damage to the second creature increases to 1d4 + your spellcasting ability modifier. Both damage rolls increase by 1d4 at 11th level (2d4 and 2d4) and 17th level (3d4 and 3d4).
