You conjure spirits from the Elemental Planes that flit around you in a 15-foot [Emanation](Mechanics/CLI/rules/variant-rules/emanation-area-of-effect-xphb.md) for the duration. Until the spell ends, any attack you make deals an extra `2d8` damage when you hit a creature in the [Emanation](Mechanics/CLI/rules/variant-rules/emanation-area-of-effect-xphb.md). This damage is Acid, Cold, Fire, or Lightning (your choice when you make the attack).
In addition, the ground in the [Emanation](Mechanics/CLI/rules/variant-rules/emanation-area-of-effect-xphb.md) is [Difficult Terrain](Mechanics/CLI/rules/variant-rules/difficult-terrain-xphb.md) for your enemies.
**Using a Higher-Level Spell Slot.** The damage increases by `d8` for each spell slot level above 4.
