Lightning Arrow Skill Mechanics
● Lightning Arrow has built-in Conversion of 50% Physical to Lightning.
● This skill hits up to 3 Additional Enemies near the Target (5 with Lab Enchant).
● It allows you to get the Maximum Shock Effect when you shock enemies as though dealing 290% more Damage.
● This can be built in Flat Lightning for great leveling Skills.
● Vaal variant is helpful for single target but is disappointing compared to Vaal Ice Shot.
● This is insanely good clear because it has a built-in AoE Shotgunning Overlap-like Kinetic Blast.
Ascendancy, Bandits, and Pantheons
● Deadeye wins Raider hands down unless you want early-game quality of life for easy Suppression, Ailment Immunity, or Onslaught.
● Deadeye grants you +2 Projectiles, Built-in Chain, 20% Action Speed with Buffed Tailwind, and Increased Mark Effect.
● Ascendancy Order:
1. Gathering Winds
2. Ricochet
3. Endless Munitions
4. Focal Point
● KILL ALL BANDITS
● Choose Soul of Lunaris and Soul of Yugul if you have Ailment Immunity.
● Choose Soul of Brine King and Soul of Garukhan if you do not have Ailment Immunity.
Passive Tree
● Lioneye's Fall is used to grab the Dagger and Claw Nodes, giving us a lot of attack speed and crit.
● Thread of Hope Large helps us save points to fit in a Large Cluster.
● Elemental Mastery with Inversion.
● Clever Thief with Instant Leech is used to solve mana/life recovery problems.
● Take Accuracy Clusters as needed to get a 100% hit chance.
