When you cast this spell, three motes of lightning appear next to you, and you can direct each mote to strike a target within the spell's range. You can direct the motes to strike a single target or separate targets. Make a separate ranged spell attack for each mote. On a hit, the mote deals 4d6 lightning damage, and then fades away. You do not have to fire all the motes on the round you cast the spell. On each successive turn, you can use an action to fire any remaining motes. If a turn passes without firing any motes, the spell ends, and all remaining motes vanish.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the amount of lightning damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 5th.
