Lightning Cage is a mage ability from the Storm tree in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Information

• Upgrades Static Cage
• Electric damage: 50% weapon damage

Notes

• Any damaging hit (basic attack or abilities) inside the cage will create extra lightning bolt, except ongoing damage, such as from Blizzard, burning status, or poisons.
• For a trapped group, use an Area of Effect ability for maximum effect, such as Explosive Shot, Firestorm, Immolate, or Mark of the Rift.
• For a single tough opponent, activate quick multiple attacks in short duration, i.e. Energy Barrage, Firestorm, Hail of Arrows, Hidden Blades, Leaping Shot, Lunge and Slash, Mark of the Rift, Spinning Blades, Thousand Cuts, Throwing Blades, Twin Fangs, or Whirlwind.

Bugs

• Damage strength of the lightning bolt is based on the attacking weapon, which triggered the extra bolt, not the original caster's staff.
• The damage of each strike is actually 70% weapon damage, not 50%.
• Each time an enemy takes damage, they are struck twice by the cage, instead of once.
• If an Enhanced Winter's Grasp Ring is equipped, the Lightning Cage upgrade is granted without needing to unlock it. Static Cage applies both upgrades if Tethering Cage is also unlocked.
