Is it possible that Lighting Strikes loop?

If you are asking if the Lightning Strikes triggered by the Glintstone gear set bonus can proc additional Lightning Strikes, then no. Only Lightning Strikes cast by the Sorcerer can trigger the effect.

While we're on the topic, is the Axe Throw perk going to become AoE like a fireball with a smaller radius, will it go through up to three enemies or will it jump from target to target like a Rogue's charged Shadow Piercer?

And if it's one of the last two, does that mean that having the upgrade that pulls towards the warrior will pull all three targets (not likely, just checking) or just the last one?

Will it also taunt all 3 mobs it hits?

None of the above?

It will throw up to 3 different axes at up to 3 different targets. The axes will have whatever properties they should based on the Upgrades chosen by the player.

About the lighning multiplicity is this an automatic cooldown of the skill like a rogues 20% chance to drop another trap? Or is it just a lightning bolt that cost no mana.oooooor is it a lightning bolt right after a normal lightning that doesnt need to be cast but automatically cast?

Guess it casts automatically, without mana cost and cooldown. Just like with the Expedition Guns.

There is a 20% chance for the spell to immediately be cast again, automatically, for 0 mana. It requires no additional work from the player.

Argh, thanks. I see. Bit concerned with the "up to three" part since it's suggesting a chance to throw a single or just double axe. Is it not 100% three axes thrown?

If there are 3 valid targets, 3 axes will be thrown 100% of the time. If there are less than 3 targets, then less than 3 axes will be thrown.

Will all upgrades apply on the second lightning, so it has a chance to explode/chain and crit, for example? If so, this skill bonus will be powerful.

Will charging lightning give the second lightning the same 25% explode/chain chance from electrical discharge upgrade?

The second Lightning Strike will have all of the same upgrades as the Lightning Strike cast by the Sorcerer. If the Sorcerer casts a normal Lightning Strike, the second strike will be normal. If it is a charged Lightning Strike, the second strike will be charged.

Imagine a charged lightning strike that procs electrical discharge which loops if the set bonus also procs in the process! How electrifying!! :banana:
