Lightning Spear Class: Sorceress (Diablo IV) Skill Category: Conjuration Active Cooldown: 20 seconds Conjure a crackling spear of lightning that seeks out enemies for 6 seconds, dealing Lightning damage per hit. Damage Type: Lightning  |
Lightning Spear is a Conjuration Lightning spell used by Sorceress in Diablo IV.
In-game[]
When cast, summons an autonomous lightning spark that homes at enemies, piercing through them in wide arc, potentially hitting more than one per turn. It can move through obstacles and even solid walls. It tries to hit a different target with each turn, but if only one remains in range, will circle around to hit them again and again.
It has no upper limit on targets or damage, only by time. Against very dense crowds, it can deal damage almost non-stop, but its wide turning radius (it cannot perform the classic 180-degrees turn) prevents it from hitting separated targets quickly.
