How to help the bloat rework chain lightning and lightning bolt

To make things more natural with the real world lightning would always bounce around so why not have it be one button. When theres one person it hits for a normal lighting bolt. When theres two it bounces to a second and when theres three it goes into a normal chain lighting.

That way u solve some button bloat and dont have to worry about accidently pressing a chain lighting or a lighting bolt its all one ability.

you mean like combine the two into a single spell? If so, I like that a lot actually.

I read this as “why don’t we just put Divine Storm and Final Verdict into the same button”

Ya if theres two or less its a lighting bolt if more q chain lighting. But since u cant choose which one the damage should be buffed on aoe and higher for the first target to compensate in case ur atracking a rare or boss with mobs

I have an actual suggestion.

Make bolt and tempest reduce the CD of crash lightning like chain does up to 6 targets.

You hit 1 button every 2 minutes and spend the rest of the time keyboard turning around mechanics. That fixes button bloat right? Ion wheres my job offer?

interesting. What’s your thought about that? Because it sounds like the suggestion above with a one button solution.

Maybe I’m reading that wrong? :slight_smile:

Nah it’s a completely different subject, i just do not agree that bolt and chain should be merged.

That suggestion is to make tempest and pwave even more satisfying to use in aoe.

ah. I like that too. Having the MW proc down to 6 is odd though so far. I’ll adapt but it was a pretty powerful aoe ability with a PW charged LB IMO

Hmm, so what’re you thinking how to improve it for aoe?

I don’t quite understand what you’re referring to here.

well, i wanted to know how you think that change will affect aoe compared to the prior pw - lb combo for aoe? Do you think it will increase our dmg? or just make it easier? or both?

It will slightly increase it, not by a lot, it’s more for consistency sake and feeling.

Ok yeah. that makes sense

i like that.
