How it Plays

Mapping
Spam Galvanic Shards for most content.

Bossing
use Stormcaller Arrow or Tempest Flurry to proc shock, curse and eye of winter then swap to Shockburst Rounds with Emergency Reload to burst em down.

How it Works

Galvanic Shards has good clear with lots of coverage coming from chains and forks. We also have explode for more clear!

Shockburst Rounds has insane single target but requires the target to be shocked. We apply consistent shocks with Galvanic Shards or for bossing we use a weapon swap to Stormcaller Arrow or Tempest Flurry to apply BIG curse, exposure AND massive shocks to greatly boost our single target.

Changelog

2025-01-26: Updated PoB for a better DPS calculation. (turned off conductivity as we set monster resistance in custom config and having conductivity caused DPS to increase incorrectly)

2025-01-25: added low budget variant

2025-01-24: added medium budget variant

2025-01-23: added runes!
