create a burst of concussive force that disorients victims without causing permanent harm. Each creature in a 20-foot radius sphere centered on a point you choose within range must make a Constitution saving throw. A target takes 7d6 force damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If this damage reduces a creature to 0 hit points, you can choose to knock the creature unconscious instead of killing it. This choice must be made as damage is assigned if the creature drops to 0 hit points. A creature knocked unconscious by the spell is stabilized at 0 hit points, as if by the spare the dying cantrip. Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd.
