Duration: | Concentration, up to 10 minutes |
Arcs of lightning emanate out from you, filling a 20-foot radius sphere centered on you with crackling electricity. When a creature enters the spell's area for the first time during a turn or ends its turn there, it must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, it takes 5d6 lightning damage, has its speed reduced to 0 and can no longer take reactions until the start of its next turn. A creature that succeeds takes half as much damage and suffers no other effect. A creature wearing metal armor has disadvantage on this saving throw.
While you maintain concentration on this spell, you have immunity to lightning damage. As an action, you can extend a lash of lightning to strike at a target. Make a ranged spell attack against one target within 30 feet, with advantage if the target is wearing metal armor. The target takes 3d6 lightning damage and must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be pulled 15 feet toward you.
