jenk lightning staff in charr land :)
bump:
i assume the lag of answers are due to people not knowing this weapon or what capture and proton bolts does. so i will try to explain it to get some oppinions:
capture: roots the caster while a channel goes for 2seconds, hitting a lightning from the air every 0,5 sec=4 hits. the lightning hits like “lightning strike” (due to the rooting and the 4hits each at 0.5 sec, it will give you time to evade if you want so not op at all.).
protons bolts: 2 seconds channel(can move freely), shoots small fast moving bolts (1 every 0,3sec+- (small energi bolt flying from the staff like lightning surge but with a small travel time though)) at a single target. same as capture it will not be too hard to dodge due to the low dmg per hit meaning if you wish to dodge it, doing so after the first bolt hits you will be reasonable durable.
so with some information of what these are, wouldnt you agree that having these instead of gust/chain lightning would be much better (and diffinately cooler looking)
Never heard of this weapon; can it be used in WvW?
It’s an event only weapon in ascalon, it’s very nice.
