Tweaked from 5eYou already know this as 5e Fire Bolt — It's your Fire Bolt — an at-will ranged fire attack with the same 5th/11th/17th scaling — except a hit also splashes a little fire onto everyone within 5 feet of the target (a Dex save for half), so it's Fire Bolt with a mini-Fireball burst stapled on.
Ranged tech attack; on a hit the target takes 1d6 fire and all creatures within 5 feet must save or take 1d4 fire splash damage.

You launch a detonator at a creature. Make a ranged tech attack against a creature you can see within range. On a hit, the target takes 1d6 fire damage, and each creature within 5 feet of the target must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 1d4 fire damage.

This power's damage increases by one die when you reach 5th level (2d6/2d4), 11th level (3d6/3d4), and 17th level (4d6/4d4).
