Arc
Arc is a lightning spell that creates a chaining pulse of electricity.
Skill functions and interactions
Chain: Arc deals 15% more damage per remaining chain. Arc gains base chains from gem level, and additional sources of chain such as Chain Support are also taken into account for this bonus.
Every time Arc chains, a secondary Arc is created that hits an additional nearby enemy. This secondary Arc cannot chain further.
Arc remembers the last two enemies hit by the main Arc, and will not hit these enemies again. This means at least 3 enemies are required before the main Arc can hit the same enemy twice.
