A high-voltage arc strikes one creature within range and jumps to nearby conductors. The primary target must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 5d8 lightning damage on a failed save or half as much on a successful one. The arc then leaps to up to two additional creatures within 30 feet of the primary target. Each of them makes its own save, taking 2d8 lightning damage on a failed save or half as much on a successful one.
