Damage/Effect
Force
You form a glowing dart of arcane force. The dart hits a creature of your choice that you can see within range. The dart deals 1d4+1 force damage. Effects which block magic missile also block mystic missile.
This spell's damage increases by 1d4+1 when you reach 5th level (2d4+2), 11th level (3d4+3), and 17th level (4d4+4).
Close, but like Magic Missile this spell should create additional bolts rather than one big one.
I actually considered doing that and replacing the 1st level version of magic missile. For now I decided to keep the 1st level magic missile in the game and give a cantrip version that fires a single missile. A lot of people were also against the multi-missile version due to being able to auto-hit multiple spellcasters that are concentrating on spells, although that isn't something that I typically care about.
