# Chaos Bolt > [!info] Spell Details > | | | > |---|---| > | **Level** | 1st | > | **School** | [[Evocation]] | > | **Casting Time** | 1 Action | > | **Range** | 120 feet | > | **Components** | V, S | > | **Duration** | Instantaneous | > | **Classes** | Sorcerer | --- ## Description You hurl an undulating, warbling mass of chaotic energy at one creature in range. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes **2d8 + 1d6 damage**. Choose one of the d8s — the number rolled on that die determines the attack's damage type: | d8 | Damage Type | |---|---| | 1 | Acid | | 2 | Cold | | 3 | Fire | | 4 | Force | | 5 | Lightning | | 6 | Poison | | 7 | Psychic | | 8 | Thunder | If you roll the same number on both d8s, the chaotic energy leaps from the target to a different creature of your choice within 30 feet of it. Make a new attack roll against the new target, and make a new damage roll, which could cause the energy to leap again. --- ## At Higher Levels When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, each target takes **1d6 extra damage** of the type rolled for each slot level above 1st.
