You create an explosion at a point within range. Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw. A target takes 8d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

The fire spreads around corners. It ignites flammable objects in the area that aren't being worn or carried.

Overcharge Tech. When you cast this power using a tech slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd.
