Lightning Bolt

Tips
In DDO, it is quite difficult to hit any more than one target at a time with a lightning bolt. The best way to hit multiple targets in a line is to target the creature farthest away. Other 3rd level spells are better choices for damage, unless the electricity energy-type is particularly needed. On the other hand, enemy casters with Lightning Bolt can be very dangerous, and often warrant the use of an energy-protection spell.
