Electrocute

Please slightly change the electrocute a bit.

There is a discussion about this spell compare to thunderstorm.

viewtopic.php?f=812&t=23490&start=10

The truth is thunderstorm is way better with consistent damage output and on top of that, crit hit doesn't affect monsters with invincible (and all later tough map bosses (or world boss, boss raid) come with invincible).

Can electrocute be slightly changed? Maybe also increase its chance to paralyse monsters (even though not working on invincible, but at least help on normal monster to compensate the fact crit hit doesn't work on bosses)?

Re: Electrocute

The idea of electrocute is not that it should be used everytime. Let's say you KNOW that Thunderstorm won't kill a monster, you just need a little more attack. You can take the 30% chance that electrocute will be critical as oppose to the 2% chance of TS being critical. It is not a go-to move. It is a strategic move.

You got a good point.

If thunderstorm does 90 damages and electrocute does 70 or 140 damages, then when fighting a monster with 100 health, you have a 30% of 1-hit kill with electrocute while thunderstorm will always take 2 hits.

Now it makes sense. Thanks for clearing this.

By the way, does sniper make its crit chance becoming 60%?

What do you put on your gryphion? Fortitude II or Sniper?

Thanks

Re: Electrocute

Sniper doesn't raise the critical chance, sniper raises the DAMAGE inflicted by a critical hit. x4 instead of x2. And I'm going to put Fort-2 on once I get it.

I see. If just 4 times the damage, then 30% occurrence rate is still not consistent enough to make that talent useful.

I have been using using Fort 2, and it is serving me well. Thanks
