Changes from default version

Unlike the original skill, this transfigured version does not fire in a nova (instead firing projectiles towards and through the enemy that set it off). Projectiles fired will pierce targets and chain off of terrain. It also has higher base damage, higher added damage effectiveness and fires fewer projectiles than default Lightning Trap.
