Talk:Lightning Orb

Test request
Can anyone get Lightning Orb to hit their hands? You can test this by wearing max armor everywhere (60+) and leave hands naked, or the other way around. The damage will be significantly different (more than 2x). Don't give me theoretical stuff, I'm asking for actual tests. Screenshot not necessary, I'll take your word for it. - 13:13, 16 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I played around for a while in scrimmage, wasn't able to get lightning orb to hit my hands...--Kiiron 17:58, 29 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Since this interesting question has been brought up, has anyone tested to make sure anything is able to hit hands? --68.142.14.71 18:29, 29 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Well I thikn by default we should assume things do have a probablity to hit hands, and consider Lightning Orb a special case until proven it's more general. I think things worthy of testing are:
 * 1. Other projectile spells
 * 2. Other non-projectile spells (but non-armor ignoring)
 * 3. Non-spell projectiles (bow attacks)
 * 4. Non-projectiles (axe, sword, hammer, dagger).

Trivia
It just occurred (or maybe I just remembered ><) to me that the concept of Lightning Orb is probably related to ball lightning. I'm going to add a link. Entropy 20:28, 30 December 2006 (CST)

WTF, where in hell's name did you learn that! I mean, really? Don't tell me Reader's Digest XD! I'm just messing w/ ya :D.~Reedem


 * Erm...I saw it on television. I also read about it in a James Rollins novel. It's called Sandstorm, if you're interested...in particular it will describe, vividly, what happens when ball lightning comes in contact with the human body. It is not pretty.
