Lightning Staff
Lightning Staff is one of the primary starter weapons available at the beginning of Megabonk. It causes lightning to instantly strike enemies from the sky, damaging them and any enemies nearby in a small AoE.
Lightning Staff can be great AoE damage after upgrading it with a few Projectile Bounce and Size levels, allowing it to hit entire crowds at once and giving more chances for item procs.
Strategy and Synergies
- Tomes:
- Size Tome - Increases the size of the lightning strike to hit more enemies at distance.
- Quantity Tome - Increases the amount of lightning strikes that happen at once.
- The Projectile Bounce upgrade is very important and causes each lightning strike to chain to another enemy per your bounce multiplier.
