Template:Gem Infobox Arc is a lightning spell that creates a chaining pulse.

Skill Functions and Interactions

Since it is not a projectile, Arc cannot Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Pierce" or Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Fork", and it cannot be supported with Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Greater Multiple Projectiles" or Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Lesser Multiple Projectiles" Multiple Projectiles. Supporting Arc with Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Chain" will result in additional chains.

Arc will chain to a random target within a specified radius centered on last target struck. Arc cannot chain back to the same target immediately, and must bounce one more time before chaining to the previous target.

Note that there is a 50% damage effectiveness on this gem, meaning all additional damage (including from Support Gems) will be halved.
