PoE2 skill gem
Shockchain Arrow
Fire a Lightning-charged arrow that homes in on enemies afflicted by Lightning Ailments. Hitting such an enemy will cause your arrow to release a damaging shockwave and Chain towards nearby targets, with those Chaining Hits also releasing a shockwave. After the final Chain, the arrow lodges into the ground as a Lightning Rod. Consumes Shock from enemies it Hits, but not Electrocution.

Patch history
3 changesFixed a bug where Lightning Arrow could not chain to Lightning Rods created by Shockchain Arrow.
Shockchain Arrow's Shockwaves now deal 100% more Damage.
Shockchain Arrow: Projectile now converts 80% of Physical damage to Lightning damage (previously 20%). Shockchain Arrow no longer releases secondary beams that continue to split. Instead, the initial projectile now consumes Shock to create a Chaining secondary projectile, which creates a Lightning Rod in the ground near its last target after its final chain. This secondary projectile does not consume Shock on targets hit. Shockwave now deals 293-507% of Attack damage at Gem levels 11-20 (previously 306-572%).
