How Lightning Damage Works
Lightning Damage is often burst-oriented, with high crit potential and rapid hit intervals. It is frequently used in spells and ranged attacks and is known for applying Shocked, which reduces enemy resistance.
Associated Masteries
- Storm Mastery
is the main source of Lightning Damage and contains multiple offensive and utility-based skills that apply Shocked.
Skills That Deal Lightning Damage
Call Lightning
is a powerful single-target spell with high Lightning burst and Shocked chance.
Chain Lightning
hits multiple enemies and frequently spreads Shocked between targets.- Storm Surge is a passive or reactive damage skill that shocks enemies around you when struck.
Tips and Synergies
- Focus on Ailment Chance and Crit to increase Shocked uptime.
- Combine with Cold Damage for heavy elemental control builds in Storm Mastery
.
- Use gear that boosts Lightning Resistance Penetration to deal consistent damage against high-resist targets.
Notes
- Lightning Damage is mitigated by Lightning Resistance.
- The Shocked Ailment can stack with other Ailments for multi-layered debuffs.
- Lightning skills tend to have high energy cost, so sustain may be needed for longer fights.
