When playing with Ball Lightning (Sorceress) I noticed a strange behaviour that seems to be bugged where attack speed will reduce the Ball Lightning tick damage when using:
[Enhanced Ball Lightning]: Ball Lightning’s damage rate is increased by 200% of your Attack Speed Bonus.
From my understanding it should increase the rate of which Ball Lightning “ticks” which it does perfectly fine but not reduce the actual damage or?
It is of course a bit tricky to test on live since the damage values have quiet a range but without any attack speed modifiers I would generally get around 500 crit ticks, where with any amount of attack speed modifier that I tested it would generally result in less tick damage then without attack speed modifier. As stated above. The rate of which damage is applied is increased (working as intended) but the damage itself is reduced (not intended?) which seems like a bug.
Additionally I use the legendary that makes Ball Lightning orbit around you if that matters for that specific case but I tested it with and without the legendary and it seems to be doing that in both cases.
Just wanted to report it here. Maybe someone from Blizz actually reads those bug threads and knows what´s going on or can test that.
