With synergies in account, Lightning is the most powerful of the Sorceress' Lightning Spells, even more so than Thunder Storm. However, its maximum and minimum damage varies wildly.

Lightning is the spell of choice for most enemies skilled in lightning-type spells, such as Mephisto and Ghosts. The spell shoots a piercing lightning bolt in a straight line, and thus is less accurate than Chain Lightning. However, this is compensated for with its greater destructive potential.
