Lightning Surge

Description
After 3 seconds, target foe is knocked down and struck for 14...83 lightning damage. This spell causes exhaustion. This is an elite skill.

Usage Notes

 * The 3 second knockdown delay will have to be timed and used objectively. Making it better targeted on spell casters then warriors whose actions are more unpredictable.
 * This spell is highly effective when cast right before a nuke spell like Deep Freeze or Searing Heat. It pins the enemy down just as the nuke starts. Combined with an ensuing Gale and the enemy can be made to suffer the full nuke.
 * Note that there is no armor penetration for this spell, unlike most other spiking spells in Air Magic.
 * Use it before a spike spell like Lightning Orb to do concetrated dmg, so you can kill a soft target with death penalty instatly, without giving the monks a chance to heal it.
