Duration

Cast timeaction

A bright streak flashes from your pointing finger to a point you choose within range and then blossoms with a low roar into an explosion of flame.

Each creature in a 20ft radius sphere centered on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw.

A target takes 8d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

The fire spreads around corners. It ignites flammable objects in the area that are not being worn or carried.
