OVCIconD4 Overcharge
Passive
Lightning spells have a 3% chance per point to create Crackling Energy.


Crackling Energy restores 25 Mana when the Sorceress moves near it.


Total Ranks: 3

Requires: Precision Magic OR Inexorable Reach OR Elemental Attunement

Overcharge is a Sorceress passive talent.

In-game[]

The chance to create Crackling Energy seems to be independent from the spell's type and cost, potentially allowing some spells to generate more Mana than their own cost.

Ball Lightning, if used in Enchantment slot, will make this talent generate additional Ball Lightnings from other spells instead.

Development[]

Originally, Overcharge would make Lightning spells' Critical Strikes have up to a 1% chance per point to release 3 Charged Bolts. It triggered off Critical Hits of any Lightning spells and attacks, and the chance scaled with Proc Coefficient. Each Critical Hit and each enemy rolled their own chances check. Charged Bolts were affected by all related enhancements and were cast at the current spell rank (rank 1 if not learned). This effect could chain repeatedly off its own Charged Bolts.
