You imbue a quiver of arrows or bolts with magical energy, granting a limited number of them the ability to duplicate mid-flight. Choose up to 12 arrows or bolts in the quiver. These arrows are enchanted as Duplicating Arrows until they are fired or the spell ends.
When a Duplicating Arrow is loosed, it duplicates itself exponentially every 10 feet it travels:
- 10 feet: 2 arrows
- 20 feet: 4 arrows
- 30 feet: 8 arrows
- And so on.
Each duplicated arrow has the same properties as the original, including attack rolls, damage, and any magical effects. The duplication ceases immediately upon any arrow striking a target or surface. If an arrow misses, the duplicates continue along the same trajectory until hitting a surface or traveling their maximum range.
Once all 12 enchanted arrows are loosed, the spell ends early. Any unused enchanted arrows lose their magic when the spell ends.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can enchant 2 additional arrows or bolts for each slot level above 3rd.
