Damage/Effect
Lightning
An arc of lightning leaps from your outstretched hand toward a creature or object you can see within range.
Make a ranged spell attack. On a hit, the target takes 1d8 lightning damage. If you hit the target, or if the target was an object made of metal, you can then make another ranged spell attack from the target's position against another creature or object within 30 ft. of it, dealing 1d8 lightning damage on a hit. You can only target one additional creature or object in this way once when you cast this spell.
This spell's damage increases when you reach certain levels: the damage increases when you reach 5th level (2d8), 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).
