Time:
Action
Range:
1,000 ft.
Target:
Split among one or more targets
Cost:
Spellburn 1
Defense:
None
You fire a barrage of small homing missiles of elemental energy which never miss their target.

Deal 1d12+1 elemental damage, distributed as you see fit among targets within sight.
Intensify: +1d12 elemental damage per boost from Intensify.
(At lower mastery, the damage die is smaller).

Arcane Darts can go around cover to hit a target, as long as there is some path the darts can take to reach them.

(Arcane Darts is considered a hit, although it does not roll to hit).

Suggested Backfire: Uncontrolled fire. You damage yourself, and any targets close to you.

(Each point of damage represents one Arcane Dart, but darts which strike together combine into one instance of damage.)
