Spark is a projectile lightning spell skill that launches a spray of lightning sparks in front of the character that move in an erratic fashion. These projectiles can bounce off terrain and last until it expires or hits an enemy. If you have a Cold Infusion, it is consumed to release additional icy sparks in a circle that deal cold and lightning damage.

Skill functions and interactions

The speed of the projectiles created by Spark can be increased or decreased by projectile speed.

Quality now provides 0-30% increased Projectile Speed (previously Fires +0-4 Projectiles).
