You create a floating, spectral weapon within range that lasts for the duration or until you cast this spell again. When you cast the spell, you can make a melee spell attack against a creature within 5 feet of the weapon. On a hit, the target takes 1d8 + your casting ability modifier force damage. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the weapon up to 20 feet and repeat the attack. The weapon takes whatever form you choose, clerics of Kaelith favor war hammers, those of Mordath prefer scythes, and followers of Verath often manifest a plain, unadorned grey blade.

At Higher Tiers

+1d8 damage for every two tiers above 2nd.
