A Diablo IV player has recently discovered that the Lightning Storm skill is not as useless as gamers previously believed. The player, who goes by the user name CrypticGorillaCaulk on Reddit, recent posted the stats for the ability when it reaches level 15. It surprisingly provided a significant amount of area damage for the Diablo IV player, enough to warrant showing off the incredible amount power on social media. The amount of damage caused by each Lightning Storm attack is between 9115 – 11,141, which is a significant magic attack in the game, basically killing anything in sight.
If you are interested in achieving the same level of power as this Diablo IV player, the Lightning Storm ability is on the skill tree for the Druid class. Diablo IV contains a total of 58 skill points players can use to build out their character class. There are a total of five classes in the game, including Rogue, Sorcerer, Necromancer, Druid, and Barbarian.
Once a Diablo IV player selects the Druid class, they just need to ensure 15 points are saved for the Lightning Storm power on their skill tree. Those who are looking for a quick playthrough of the game with incredible power should take advantage of this skill upgrade, before Blizzard Entertainment has an opportunity to patch it. This is just in case the upgraded damage is a bug and was not intended by the developer to be part of the title.
This particular Diablo IV player has been getting a lot of attention on Reddit for their post and it is very possible many Diablo IV gamers will be upgrading this power in the future. While some have been claiming Druid is the worst class, other believe the lightning abilities make it a superior option. This Diablo IV player is certainly putting the recent debate to the test with such an incredible attack.
Diablo IV Has Been a Bit of a Mess Since Launch According to Gamers
If you have been following the news surrounding Diablo IV or its first season content that released July 20, then you might have heard some of the issues coming from the game. Hardcore players have been killed by weak enemies, dungeons have been filled with bugs, and Blizzard Entertainment has had to re-stack damage for new characters.
The game has had to be patched multiple times which makes it hard for any Diablo IV player to enjoy themselves. The game has seen success in sales, but it appears there is still very much work to be done on the actual product.
Although demand may be through the roof for the game, the average Diablo IV player does not want to purchase an incomplete title. There is certainly a limit to the number of patches Blizzard Entertainment can make before gamers start to give up on it. That said, some users are enjoying the randomness of a few of these bugs.
There have been game breaking problems, but there are also cases like this Lightning Strike level 15 power upgrade. Whether this ability was meant to dramatically increase damage is unknown, however it will definitely be something Diablo IV players will want to use while it lasts.
Diablo IV is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox series X/S, and PC. For those excited to continue their experience or start a new campaign in Diablo IV, the second season is expected to debut in October.
