Electrical Shock questions

[The Rock-man]

I just been using Electrical Shock on one of my chars wow it powerful but costly.
Well now for my questions it sometimes stun every mob but dont hurt them with that beam that bounces from it:
What damage does the bouncing beam do? And secondarily why does it sometimes kill everything it hits and other times do nothing?

BTW these mobs are spread out the same amount far bigger than the 0.6m on the info screen.

id like to know this too....very powerfull skill, but its strange when you see it arc to and hit other monsters yet do absolutely nothing to them.

I don't understand neither...
PF told me that was like this in the original TQ, but i don't remember...
Another problem is that lightning is powerfull compared to cold and fire...
All the skills are great in lightning. It's not the case at all for the other ways

Hi there,

Check it here:

Well, lightning is about dmg, cold is about defense and slowing, fire is about dmg also and also slowly burning down. If you have good equipment, you can always make your dreamt way the best one... Each way requires different strategy...otherwise they would be same...

In the normal TQ, when an ennemi is hit, he takes damage with electical shock, but in the mod, he is hit (we can see the animation) but he takes no damage. Try it if you don't trust me. We are at least three who have seen the problem.

The problem with cold, it's that the snowball is useless...
Impossible to aim correctly, the balls go random...
And the other skills have huge coldown... Whereas in the normal TQ, ice shards was a powerfull skill...
It's the same for fire : fireball is the only skill with little coldown...
Why not transform ice shards into fire shards ? It would give an interesting skill to fire.

And cold and fire are already the same : it is the same identity
blizzard is the same as chasm
avalanche is the same as meteor
another idea : remplace avalanche by a sort of ice shard we could spam on ennemis !

Heh, I meant probably something different...

Do not worry about the spreading, it will be removed completely, for it cannot be there unfortunately...

Snowballs are there to freeze and dmg monsters. Have low cooldown also. I think it is a good skill for starters. It does very high dmg on late Epic with good equip. Skills like Blizzard, Avalanche and Meteor has high cooldown because they are boss and crowd killers.

I do not think the transmutation of ice shards is that easy as you think..hehe..if even possible...

I will ask PinkFrog about the cooldowns, some at least...

Well, it is not that easy to replace something man...

And you are the only one complaining about the stuff anyway...sorry, but for making such a BIG changes to the skills is quite late...you must use what we serve you...but there will be some changes I think...

And you do not have to go only one way, do you? There will be just one stronger, depending on what way you choose...but equip and high INT will do the job for the other one also...

Right well glad to hear the spread is getting removed as ingame it pulls everything on the screen.

Yeah, I noticed it has been replaced in the new version (1.0.2).
I kinda liked the old one (1.0.1). The new version really seems to nurf the damage a lot, so I replaced 1.0.1. Not a problem at all to go back, as that didn't affect the game on my computer. I'll just use continue to use it for a while. Thaumaturgist is a pyrotechnic light show! Yowzer.
