Funcom needs to invest in some pvp inclined changes. What is the point of lightning storm doing raid damage that improves pve? You can’t raid in pve or pve-c, so they made the very real decision of “yeah it should do this level of damage in pvp servers, that’s fine”.
I have gazillions of screenshots but only one footage needs to be shown, here I show a 5x5x5 base build then cast a storm on it. A single bolt takes out most of the base. Check out 2:35 Twitch
Lightning Storm doesn’t seem to care about how many blocks you have in your base, it can and will target foundation blocks at random and can blow everything up.
Some other screenshots here of some testing: 10x10 foundation after a single storm:
Testing the full range of the storm 25x25 had 5 different bolts that killed
foundations, so a large enough base can receive 5 base destroying bolts!
