If you target one creature, you get to roll a d4 for each missile: at level 1 that is three darts: so 3d4 + 3. If more than 1 target, then you roll only one d4 die. For those who disagree, I am sorry. However the PHB leaves the issue vague, and therefore up to the DM. Note that the description on P. 196 references “fireball” and “flame strike”.
Can you add a bonus to damage on a dice?
You roll the damage die or dice, add any m odifiers, and apply the damage to your target. Magic weapons, special abilities, and other factors can grant a bonus to damage.
What does a spell tell you about the dice?
A spell tells you which dice to roll for damage and whether to add any modifiers. If a spell or other effect deals damage to more than one target at the same time, roll the damage once for all of them. For example, when a wizard casts fireball or a cleric casts flame strike, the spell’s damage is rolled once for all creatures caught in the blast.
When to change the size of the damage dice?
If the initial size is Medium or lower (or is treated as Medium or lower) or the initial damage is 1d8 or less, instead decrease the damage by one step. • If the exact number of original dice is not found on this chart, apply the following before adjusting the damage dice.
How many sorcery points can you spend on empowered spell?
You must use the new rolls. You can use Empowered Spell even if you have already used a different Metamagic option during the casting of the spell. When you cast a spell that has a duration of 1 minute or longer, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double its duration, to a maximum duration of 24 hours.
Can you cast a spell on more than one creature at once?
If a spell or other effect deals damage to more than one target at the same time, roll the damage once for all of them. For example, when a wizard casts fireball or a cleric casts flame strike, the spell’s damage is rolled once for all creatures caught in the blast.
When do you regain expended spell slots in Sorcerer?
You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell burning hands and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast burning hands using either slot. You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the sorcerer spell list.
What is the effect of the magic missile spell?
The Magic Missile spell (PHB p. 257, also in the online Basic Rules) has this effect: You create three glowing darts of magical force. Each dart hits a creature of your choice that you can see within range. A dart deals 1d4 + 1 force damage to its target.
Do you always do 1 point of damage in D3e?
In D&D3e, if you successfully hit a target you always did at least 1 point of damage (before applying Damage Resistance), even if you had a Strength penalty. I can’t find any mention of that rule in the 5e PHB.
