DESCRIPTION

Lightning crackles over your victim and arcs into nearby enemies.

A bolt of lightning strikes the primary target which is stunned for one round, then the lightning can arc to any number of secondary targets. All affected creatures take 1d6 points of electricity damage per caster level (maximum of 25d6).

Each target can attempt a Reflex saving throw for half damage. Each secondary target must also make a Fortitude saving throw or be dazed for 1 round. You choose secondary targets as you like, but the lightning cannot arc more than 30 feet to reach a target, and no target can be struck more than once.
