Alternate description

A second source words this differently; both are kept rather than one being discarded.

Calls down a bolt of lightning that deals 50 to 56 Arcane damage to an opponent.

As it was earlier

What guides written while Vanguard was running recorded for this ability. Kept beside the current figures rather than replacing them — the game was rebalanced across its life, so both are right for their own year.

Damage, healing and hate in Vanguard scale with your stats, skills and level — the figures above are the ability's own, not what a particular character will see.

Notes

Previously recorded by The Telon Project as: “Calls down a bolt of lightning that deals XX to YY arcane damage to an opponent. At higher levels there is a chance to cast an additional bolt of lightning, dealing arcane damage” (http://thetelonproject.wikidot.com/abilities:lightning-strike-i)

Read from the in-game tooltip in VGO Emulator. Bracketed damage figures shown in game are the skill- and level-adjusted values for that character and are not recorded here.
