Notes
- There are two rolls involved with this spell: A spell Attack roll to determine if the 4d8Lightning damage applies to the main target and a
Dexterity saving throw to determine if the 2d8Lightning burst damage is halved. - The hit chance shown in the preview when targeting the spell is for the saving throw rather than the attack roll.
- The attack roll is not shown in the combat log. If you fail this roll, you will get no indication of why the primary 4d8Lightning damage was not applied.
