Until the spell ends, dim light fills the cylinder.W hen a creature enters the spell’s area for the firsttime on a turn or starts its turn there, it is engulfedin ghostly flames that cause searing pain, and it mustmake a Constitution saving throw. It takes 2d10 radiantdamage on a failed save, or half as much damage on asuccessful one.A shapechanger m akes its saving throw withdisadvantage. If it fails, it also instantly reverts to itsoriginal form and can’t assum e a different form until itleaves the spell’s light.On each of your turns after you cast this spell, you canuse an action to move the beam 60 feet in any direction.A t Higher Levels. W hen you cast this spell using aspell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases by1dlO for each slot level above 2nd.Moonbeam seems very powerful, and to me it means that you can trigger its damage each time on your turn (sweep through the enemies with it) and then just leave it on top of a juicy spot to trigger again on the enemy's turn. Am I reading it right? The spell seems insane to me!</blockquote>
