Ok, Im not sure if this has been recognized or what but here is my issue.
My lightning blast does not chain whenever my preparation buff becomes available (every 3 seconds). This effectively makes my lightning blast worse than it would be normally without the buff. That doesn’t make sense to me.
I spend a lot of points (10) in preparation and a lot of points in lightning blast’s chain and related skills only to have them all negated when preparation becomes available.
Since the mage was apparently supposed to be a ranged character class why would there be a huge nerf detriment to the only range skill I decide to use. This not only reduces overall damage as i can only hit one target as opposed to potentially 5 or 6 but it deletes the strategy of having this as a ranged skill to hit enemy packs from range before they come close to me.
My question…Is there plans to fix this?
Thanks
Upon further testing on one out of every 4-5 shots the bolt does split into two arcs before hitting targets, but it does not chain from one target to another. And never hits more than two targets because it only splits or is cast as two arcs prior to hitting anything. And again this is only one out of every 4 or 5 shots.
Procedure for testing:
I walk without shooting until preparation comes up and then take one shot at a pack from distance, then walk again until it prep comes up again and take one shot. I repeat this and it never chains. I have 4/4 points in arcing power.
I do not have insideous conduction.
The reason you’re seeing this behavior is because Arcing Power gains more lightning arcs based on how many times Lightning Blast has been cast recently. So if there is a period of time in-between casts like in your testing case, you will have a harder time seeing more arcs.
