Notes[]

  • Does not inflict friendly fire.
  • Initializes a paralyze combo.
  • The Static Cage with Lightning Cage upgrade can be combined with spells that deal damage multiple times to acquire massive amounts of damage. For instance, after putting up a Lightning Cage, use the Energy Barrage spell. This will result in 12 projectiles hitting an enemy for 12 × 66% = 792% weapon damage from the Barrage, plus 12 × 50% = 600% weapon damage from the Lightning Cage, thus hurting an enemy for 1392% weapon damage. Using spells that deal damage over time, such as Immolate, also can cause significant damage - in case of Immolate, to multiple enemies standing in the area of effect of both spells.
