V Rising Shock Abilities: Guide & List

AntMag.NET

The Shock spell list in V Rising offers a direct, bursty magical playstyle, contrasting with Chaos's damage-over-time effects. Shock spells apply Static to enemies, increasing magic burst damage by 10%. Randomly triggered chain lightnings deal 50% magic damage and bounce twice, with enemies dying with Static also triggering this effect. This provides significant burst damage and mob-cleaving potential.
