You choose up to 15 pieces of ammunition, which spring to life at your command. Each piece animates and becomes a creature under your control until the spell ends or until reduced to 0 hit points.
As a bonus action, you can mentally command any creature you made with this spell if the creature is within 500 feet of you (if you control multiple creatures, you can command any or all of them at the same time, issuing the same command to each one). You decide what action the creature will take and where it will move during its next turn, or you can issue a general command, such as to guard a particular chamber or corridor. If you issue no commands, the creature only defends itself against hostile creatures. Once given an order, the creature continues to follow it until its task is complete.
Animated Ammunition Statistics
| Size | HP | AC | Str | Dex | Attack |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tiny | 20 | 18 | 4 | 18 | +8 to hit, 1d4 + 4 damage |
An animated ammunition is a construct with AC, hit points, attacks, Strength, and Dexterity as shown above. Its Constitution is 10 and its Intelligence and Wisdom are 3, and its Charisma is 10. It has a flying speed of 30 feet and can hover. It has blindsight with a radius of 30 feet and is blind beyond that distance. When the animated ammunition drops to 0 hit points, it reverts to its original object form, and any remaining damage carries over to its original object form.
If you command an object to attack, it can make a single melee attack against a creature within 5 feet of it. It makes a slam attack with an attack bonus and damage type determined by the ammunition used.
At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, you can animate two additional objects for each slot level above 5th.
