Galvanic Arrow is a ranged bow attack skill that fires arrows which deals lightning damage in an area of effect cone. The arrows have a short range, but it can be extended with increased projectile speed, which also increases the AoE.

The cone and arrow deal damage independent of each other, effectively doubling damage dealt to monsters directly in the line of fire.

Galvanic Arrow shoots a lightning cone each time you shoot your bow. Barrage Support makes your projectiles fire sequentially instead of simultaneously, meaning a lightning cone is triggered for each projectile shot during your attack.

3.12.0	Now has alternative quality

Now gains added Lightning Damage as the gem levels, up to 9 to 179 at gem level 20. Now gains 1% increased Projectile Speed per 1% gem quality (from 1% increased Area of Effect per 2% gem quality). Arrows no longer pierce by default. Galvanic Arrow's threshold jewel, , can no longer drop or be obtained from quests.
3.2.0	Shrapnel Shot now converts 50% of Physical Damage to Lightning Damage (up from 40%).
3.0.0	Shrapnel Shot pierces 4 targets at level 1, up to 7 at level 20.
2.6.0	Shrapnel Shot gains 1 additional unit of radius every 4 levels. No longer gain increased area of effect radius.
