Divine Smite

2nd-Level Paladin Feature

When you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can expend one spell slot to deal radiant damage to the target, in addition to the weapon's damage. The extra damage is 2d8 for a 1st-level spell slot, plus d8 for each spell level higher than 1st, to a maximum of 5d8 . The damage increases by 1d8 if the target is an undead or a fiend, to a maximum of 6d8 .
