Abyssus Lightning Blessings Guide
Lightning Blessings in Abyssus specialize in chaining damage between multiple enemies, making them ideal for clearing groups quickly. They also boost your critical hit chance and reward precision or builds focused on high crit uptime.
The Aspect of Lightning lets you send Chain Lightning between enemies, with each Lightning Blessing you collect increasing your critical hit chance. Critical hits count as Weakspot hits regardless of where you strike, giving more consistent high-damage triggers.
