The new lightning enchant - Lightning Arc

aidek0aidek0 Member Posts: 116 Arc User
"All cooldowns are reduced by 2% for the first lightning strike, plus an additional 1% for each chain." This new benefit does not work on Burning Light (paladin encounter), it does work on Templar's Wrath.
There might be more encounters it does not work on?

    There are certain encounters and/or procs that don't proc weapon enchants. Path of Blades on the TR for example.

    I tested it [T. Lightning] for like 10 mins... and, if it goes LIVE at it is right now... GG EZ NO RE NO QQ if some classes use it... @amenar, please, listen to us: T. Lightning is broken OP right now under "certain" circunstances and it must be nerfed for good [iCD at minimum to avoid its brokeness] .

    If you want, contact/hook me (up) via PM or via ingame chat/email [my username is my @handle, so, you will not miss it at all] and i will tell you the reasons behind it and "how" to make your tests to check by yourselves how much BROKEN op it is right now... even i can show you in real time tests about it...

    hmm i can offhand think of three to four classes that might be buggy with that, HR, GF, GWF, and maybe SW, which ones did you test? OP might also be an issue depending on some proccs

    tested with HR and TR nothing particular detected, it seems to have a cooldown somehow. I heard is OP on cws and doesnt work well with sws.

    hmm what build did you use on the HR? usual SW trapper? trapper has no cds to speak of anyway. i believe blade storm might be a problem with the additional proccs, i am not sure if that proccs weapon enchants. gushing wound should be watched, same as Careful Attack on the pathfinder. i have sadly no access to a higher leveled lightning enchant on the preview.

    it might be worth testing it with a combat build of a pathfinder trapper with rain of arrows/ gushing wounds/plantgrowth with CA and rapid strike as at wills

    Can you please message me any details you have about a potential issue?
  • archangelzorak01archangelzorak01 Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 324 Arc User
    Tested transcendent on a TR, despite the 8 hits from Duelist flurry and the fact that the Lightning was arcing between 3 training dummies I saw very little noticeable cooldown reduction. Even if the cooldown reduction was actually significant, the amount of damage it does overall is extremely lackluster.

    Although I will mention that it does more overall damage than the Lostmauth set bonus, which I find hilarious.

    As i usually delete my chars from test server, i lost that enchant. If i get my hands on it again, i will show you what it can do with a video.
    @clonkyo1

    I have a pure Lightning ready to upgrade. Would mailing you that on preview help? Just let me know how to address.

    Maybe they're finally pushing a new build. I won't be on for several hours anyway.

    @clonkyo1 Enchant mailed on preview. Took me a lot longer to get onto preview than I expected. Sorry about that.
