## Description
You point at a location within range, and a glowing 1-foot diameter ball of emerald acid streaks there and then detonates in a 20-foot-radius sphere. Each creature in that area must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes **10d4 acid damage** and another **5d4 acid damage** at the end of its next turn. On a successful save, a creature takes half the initial damage and no damage at the end of its next turn.

## At Higher Levels
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the initial damage increases by **2d4** for each slot level above 4th.
