A Thunderbolt that does 60 points of shock damage to Health and half that to Magicka.

Thunderbolt is an expert level Destruction spell that deals shock damage to Health and Magicka.

Effects

• Thunderbolt, 60 pts for 0+0.1 sec
• Perk Impact Stagger, 0.25 pts; if the Impact perk has been unlocked
• Disintegrate, 200 pts for 1 sec; if the Disintegrate perk has been unlocked

Perks

• Augmented Shock, raises damage to 75 at first rank or 90 at second rank

Notes

• Thunderbolt is essentially just a much more powerful (and expensive) version of Lightning Bolt, with added sound effects and screen shake.
• Like most Lightning spells, it can be used to set off Lightning Runes from a safe distance.
• It has much shorter range than the equivalent Incinerate and Icy Spear spells, but the fact that it is cast instantly instead of as a projectile makes it much easier to hit moving targets so long as they're within range.
• Thunderbolt is very useful for fowling (Hawks, Bone Hawks, Felsaad Terns). As long as the birds aren't flying too high, they can be hit with only a little bit leading. Best to use where the fallen bird can be reached.
