You are immune to electrical attacks (100%)

The following skills and spells are affecting you:

Grounding spell is active for 3 hours

**fight**
The crystal ball atop your staff flashes yellow!
The electricity fizzles at your feet.
A wicked deepspawn parries your blast of light.
Your blast of light maims a wicked deepspawn!


This spell should protect me from lightning attacks, why it doesnt allow my staff to cast lightning bolt to my enemy?

It's not a bug. You can't cast lightning spells while affected by grounding.

I think that you cant cast lightning spells when you have grounding on.
Or perhaps electricity go through ground so it has no time to hit the enemy.

I can understand if I cast lightning spells myself beeing invoker for example and grounding spell doesnt allow me to do that.

But it's my weapon who casts a spell! Roll Eyes

You are holding the staff in your hand and your hand is grounded, so electricity will go through your hand right into the ground Smiley

Grounding worked like that since the time spell was implemented. And it happened years ago.
All changes that are player-relevant, are mentioned in a note every time we update the code.
Yes, one of the invoker spells is going to be fixed in near future, just because it is an obvious overpower we somehow missed. The first invoker spell touched by coders during last half-a-year or more.

What about EFB and SL, fixed not so much time ago... ?
And you decided to not improve incendriary cloud juts couple weeks ago. (Anyway it is not so bad because I thought that fireball will be cutted instead of improvind cloud...)

Invokers have lightning shield. Grounding is for other mages.

Grounding on + energy shield on are very nice pair of spells.
Grounding for mages but not for invokers hmm, maybe invoker not mage in your view?

I'll share with you one more idea how to adjust invoker again: release force field from him, when lighting shield exchanged on energyshield...

grounding is an interesting spell, but its not purely designed for invokers and its never been changed since invention.
