Trajectory Farce

You fire or throw the weapon used in the spell's casting at an object within the weapon's range. The weapon or projectile ricochets from the object without damaging it, and you make a ranged attack with the weapon originating from the last ricochet's position. The target must be within the weapon's range, measured from you.

The number of ricochets you can make before the ranged attack increases when you reach certain levels. For each additional time, you pick a new object to ricochet against, originating from the last ricochet's position. It can ricochet twice at 5th level, thrice at 11th level, and four times 17th level. For each ricochet you can make beyond the first one, the ranged attack deals an extra 1d8 damage (resulting in 1d8 5th level, 2d8 at 11th level, and 3d8 at 17th level).
