Thunder Bolt And Status Chance

[Mema]

Hello,

Looking at my Dread with his 20% status chance increased by Hammer Shot, I answered me a stupid question: does the effect of Thunder bolt benefit from status chance by any way or not at all?

 

Because I'm french, the same in french: je me demande si la chance de status a quelque chose d'utile en combinaison avec le mod Coup de Foudre.

 

Merci, thanks,

Mema

No, thunderbolt is fixed at 30% maxed.

[Mema]

Ok, thanks.

And does the explosion make the status effect of the Blast dammage?

[EDeN153]

No, Thunderbolt is pure and raw damage.

[Mema]

All right. 

Thank you!

So... it's a little bit complicated to get benefit from the hight critical rate AND the hight status chance on that bow if I well-understand?

[EDeN153]

Yes, several things work together to make the damage higher overall.

The only thing you can do to make Thunderbolt more effective is to add the mod Split Chamber. This gives you a chance to shoot 2 arrows instead of 1, and both arrows have the same chance to explode. With a max rank Split Chamber, about half of your bow shots will trigger Thunderbolt at least once.

Year, I know it and that was like this that I moded my Dread.

But new, with the dammage 2.0, I'm wondering if it's not more efficiant to avoid Thunderbolt to put Blast Dammage on it and Hammer shot.

In the paper, I think it's better. Now lets try!

But thanks for your quick answers!
