Fire an arrow that drops from above, creating a Lightning burst. The arrow remains in the ground, and any Chaining Lightning beams can Chain to it. When Chained to, the arrows charge up for a brief period before releasing another Lightning burst. The Lightning Arrow Skill reduces this delay, causing bursts to happen more quickly.
