The third part of the feat states:
Whenever you cast a spell that deals fire damage, you can cause flames to wreathe you until the end of your next turn. The flames don’t harm you or your possessions, and they shed bright light out to 30 feet and dim light for an additional 30 feet. While the flames are present, any creature within 5 feet of you that hits you with a melee attack takes 1d4 fire damage.
Question is on the word "deals" and if that applies to spells you miss with. So I cast Green Flame Blade, Firebolt or Scorching Ray and miss. The spell didn't "deal" any fire damage because you missed, do you still get to wreath yourself in flames?
Also I am trying to come up with a good melee build that is both thematic and uses this feat with green flame blade.
