Alpha-1 preview Mage Thundershock ability.

As a reminder these are early works in progress, and represent lower level spells for our Alpha One playtests. One important thing to note, the speed of casting is not augmented by buffs in this video. So as many of you may know from the many mmos we all play, lower level casting can tend to be slower than the casting at higher levels due to passive augments and active buffs that can be applied. This will speed up cast times and overall combat for casters (and across all classes). – Steven Sharif

Base skill

Shoots forward a beam of lightning that damages enemies in a line in front of you.

Rank 2

Increased damage.

Rank 3

Now knocks down hit targets.

It's the Arc Lightning that you can charge up; and that charge up is essentially additional time that's spent as a risk in exchange for additional DPS when the execution occurs. – Steven Sharif
