Description

Upon casting this spell, you create 1 fist-sized sphere of force + 1 per 2 caster levels (maximum 8). They hover on your square, and you may launch them against enemies as defined below.

Each time an enemy within the range of this spell does an action that would normally provoke an attack of opportunity if it were threatened, you may immediately launch a sphere at a point adjacent to a space occupied by it as a free action, causing it to detonate. Each sphere detonated in this way deals 3d6+3 force damage to creatures in a 5 ft. radius burst; Reflex negates. If the provoking action was movement, the target is harder to hit and gains a +1 bonus to its saving throw for every 20 ft. in that movement. This “attack” does not count against your normal attacks of opportunity, but you may only do it a number of times equal to your Dexterity modifier each round.

As a standard action, you may launch up to 2 spheres at points no more than 30 ft. from each other. Each sphere deals its 3d6+3 force damage, Reflex negates, in a 5 ft. radius burst. The maximum number of spheres you can launch at a time with this action increases to 3 at 15th level and 4 at 20th level. Each sphere of force is completely destroyed upon use.

The spell ends once all spheres are destroyed.
