Implicit: 10–60% chance to inflict Bleed

Unique Effect: Lightning Rod

While you have a Stormscale planted in the ground, your melee attacks trigger area damage around it.

On Right Click

Plant a spectral glaive at the targeted location and tether it to you for 40 seconds.

Each melee hit sends a visible surge down the tether over 0.8 seconds. When it reaches the glaive, it damages enemies within a 3.5-block radius and pulls them inward.

Each melee attack you perform increases its pulse damage and radius by 1%, stacking up to 80%.

Moving more than 32 blocks from the planted glaive or switching weapons breaks the tether.

Ionbound Stormscale

While Stormscale is awakened to level 4 or higher, reforging it during a thunderstorm transforms it into Ionbound Stormscale. Reforging below level 4 returns it to Stormscale.

Unique Effect: Ion Containment

While wielded, Ionbound Stormscale generates an Ion Cube every 8 seconds, storing up to three. The cubes remain charged when the weapon is stowed.

Taking more than 20% of your maximum health from a single hit consumes one cube. The hit is completely negated and an enlarged ion field protects you from further damage for 2 seconds.

On Right Click

Consume an Ion Cube to raise two 12-block-long lightning forcefields in front of you. Enemies caught in the corridor are dragged toward its centre as the walls slam shut, then take significant lightning damage and are slowed.

Activate the weapon again within 1 second of the slam to consume another Ion Cube and channel a concentrated beam for 3 seconds. The beam follows your aim, repeatedly deals lightning damage, and paralyses enemies for 5 seconds. Your movement speed is reduced by 90% and your aim is greatly slowed while channelling.
