Pool of the item type from the game files, version 2.8.0. Skill damage bonuses only carry weight for their class. All properties of this slot

The Quinblades are the only surviving weapons forged by master swordsmith Morad Peerse, each a unique expression of his craft. Made during Peerse's Early Period, Fulminator expresses, through blinding speed and arcing lightning strikes, its maker's youthful exuberance and the joy he found in his craft.

Fulminator

This sword electrifies the entire battlefield. Any lightning damage you deal can turn enemies into lightning rods that in turn deal damage to nearby foes over several seconds. Individual hits thus spark a contagious chain reaction that spreads rapidly, especially through dense packs.

The sword carries no class restriction, but it naturally comes into its own in any build that commits to lightning damage. Practical tip: aim preferentially at large clusters so as many enemies as possible become lightning rods at once and their damage areas overlap. The tighter the enemies are packed, the more devastating the arcing damage becomes, and you'll clear whole rooms almost on their own.

Roll range and targeting

A lightning rod pulses 444 to 555% weapon damage as Lightning every second to nearby enemies for 6 seconds. At 472%, the tooltip copy sits toward the bottom of the range; a Primal Ancient has 555%. The tooltip does not state the chance of the transformation. The targeting matters: the damage goes to nearby enemies around the rod. Against a lone enemy with no other enemies nearby, the power therefore has little to work with, while in packs every rod hits its neighbors.

Which damage triggers the power

The trigger is any Lightning damage you deal - not one specific skill. The more of your attacks deal Lightning damage, the more chances you get at new lightning rods. The sword carries fixed Lightning damage of 981 to 1199 minimum and 1175 to 1490 maximum, plus Strength, Dexterity or Intelligence at 626 to 750 points.

The Quinblades

According to the flavor text, Fulminator is one of the Quinblades, the only surviving weapons of master swordsmith Morad Peerse. Made during his Early Period, it expresses through blinding speed and arcing lightning its maker's youthful exuberance and the joy he found in his craft.
