Nova Next Delay (Frames) 4 3. Bolt Next Delay (Frames) 4 Each successful attack adds one charge, up to a maximum of three: further successful attacks only reset duration charges are active before expiring. One charge Two charges Three charges Charge bonuses do not apply until released using one of the following finishing skills: Normal melee Attack Dragon Talon Dragon Claw Dragon Tail Dragon Flight Charge bonuses accumulate upon successful attacks: applies lightning damage to release target with one to three charges, a medium range piercing nova with two to three, and long range bolts (which are destroyed upon collision) with three; one charge applies +50% AR to finishing skill, two apply +100% AR and three apply +150% AR. Due to next delay of both nova and bolt, release target is only damaged by nova. However, since nova travels more quickly, targets further away may be hit by both nova and a bolt, and targets beyond range of nova (~8 yards) may still be hit by bolt. Knockback may allow closer targets to be hit by both nova and bolt, so Claws of Thunder is often released with Dragon Tail. Synergy bonus applies to all charges; does not apply to minimum lightning damage. +% Lightning Skill Damage only applies to first charge. [2] When equipping two claws, both weapons are used to attack. Can also accumulate charges from the following skills before releasing with a finishing skill: Tiger Strike Fists of Fire Cobra Strike Blades of Ice Phoenix Strike As long as durations of respective charge-up skills do not expire, all applicable charge bonuses are applied to the finishing skill upon release. Source Shadow Warrior and Shadow Master can also use Claws of Thunder. Skill bonus +(1-3) Claws of Thunder (Assassin Only) can spawn on ilvl >18 Exceptional and Elite claws (Hand Scythe and higher).
