changedWizards (Mage) now gain access to train the Chain Lightning spell at level 12. It requires the Lightning spell to have been trained previously. This new spell is a projectile attack which will launch three multiple bolts, which can ricochet off of objects, and can damage multiple targets before they consumes themselves. This can be used to fire three shots around objects, or to fire into crowds where it can bounce many times. Each additional skill rank adds an additional bolt.
