Lose all Power Charges on reaching Maximum Power Charges, Shocks you when you reach Maximum Power Charges: These effects are triggered whenever a change to your current number of power charges is equal to your maximum power charges.
When used with items that grant X% chance that if you would gain Power Charges, you instead gain up to your maximum number of Power Charges modifier (e.g. Inya's EpiphanyInya's Epiphany Arcanist SlippersEnergy Shield: (47-55)Requires Level 61, 119 Int+(50-70) to maximum Life 25% increased Movement Speed (5-8)% increased Intelligence 5% increased Damage per Power Charge 25% chance that if you would gain Power Charges, you instead gain up to your maximum number of Power ChargesThough the path we walk is the same, each journey is different.), you lose all your power charges and become shocked.
