Wanted to try out the balance changes (after my MP rant of course) on my mage alt.
After using storm cloud a couple of times, very rarely, in some cases not every enemy is hit by the skill at once, then nearly most of the time they take 0 damage (am I maybe just too weak or do I need an electrical rune to make full use of storm cloud ....? it's chaining effect I refer to.) or is it my distance from the enemy ...

Thanks for the post. A little bit confused what's happening.

-Is the lightning bolt visual still hitting the enemy?
-Is damage text popping up and saying 0, or is no damage text popping up at all?
-Is the bug from the lightning bolt direct hit, or is it from the chained damage?

Lightning bolt visual hits the enemy
Damage text pops up and says 0 ..... sometimes it even just kills the enemy, sometimes it doesn't
and for the last question: both
I'll try to analyze what I see from farming further ..... but that's what I see mainly.

Ok thanks, I tested and I believe it is because of the chaining effect. I'm gonna go ahead and just remove this chaining effect from the storm cloud, because honestly it makes things get a bit out of hand anyway. So this should be fixed then in the next update.

Alright, so its the chaining which mitigates the damage and makes it 0? I thought that storm cloud had a target limit per tick or something lol, thanks again.

Yes unless I am mistaken. So technically, your storm cloud is doing the correct damage, I believe it's just the chaining that your seeing doing 0 damage. Which the chaining I'll have removed in the next update, since it's a bit much anyway, and just confuses things more than it needs.
