Added Lightning Damage Support

Supports any skill that hits enemies.

QUICK ANSWER

What does Added Lightning Damage Support do?

Added Lightning Damage Support adds flat lightning damage to eligible hits. PoExplorer currently matches it with 35 published PoE 1 skills after applying the source-declared compatibility rules.

POEXPLORER FIELD NOTE

How to think about it

This adds flat lightning damage to eligible hits. Its relative value depends on hit frequency, existing flat damage, damage effectiveness, and whether the build can use shock or lightning-specific scaling.

COMPATIBILITY METHOD

What it can support

PoExplorer accepts a match only when this support's allowed types intersect the active skill's source types, none of its exclusions conflict, and any gem-only restriction is satisfied.
