It's only a single Hit - the first Discharge doesn't trigger on step four because it has already triggered this Hit, you can't just infinitely trigger it over and over.

but this is wrong isn't it? because your in that example posted the theory is you are basing the triggers on the first discharge and spell discharge itself cannot proc the second one

ie: a spell cannot trigger the mjolner's proc chance it has to be "a hit" anyway which is why im a bit confused on the 2nd discharge since on a second hit with an attack itll proc the first one again

btw thanks for responding so fast its just this part is really bugging me this whole 2nd discharge thing

or are these examples saying

the first discharge procs and the second procs due to the first discharge being procced and the basing the Mjolner's chance to hit off the first discharge itself? but its not "a hit" it wouldn't work

part 4
why would the first discharge not trigger first? why would the second discharge trigger over the first discharge in the links? assuming a discharge on each hit

did you read 3) ?

"

3) First discharge triggers.

My understanding is that 3 is before 4. So if the first discharge triggers at 3) and the second at 4) how exactly is the second one triggered before the first??

well that was kinda my initial assessment of it the only real advantage i saw was the part of rolling it again for simply a chance to proc (not repeatedly) but a chance to proc at all

but im still not quite understanding the whole idea of putting another discharge besides the reason / advantage i posted above since it doesn't have a "cool-down" like cast on crit

If the Cast on Hit roll passes, all Discharges cast, in sequence. One Hit triggers all three Discharges.

Spells do Hit, and can trigger on-Hit modifiers. However, Spells do not use your Weapon, and thus cannot trigger Mjolner - it's a local trigger!

and thats the thing if say it procs whats the reasoning of putting another discharge if the first will proc it

but this makes more sense when i put it into the context of the nerfed 30% Mjolner and chance of rolling again it makes sense to kinda put another one in there to try to proc as much as possible hence the 2nd roll discharge which will consume charges if the first fails but if the first consumes charges anyway the 2nd discharge is "kinda" wasted but considering the proc rate and play style of it just repeatedly smashing things with molten it makes sense

thanks for replys all have a good one

The 30% chance to proc linked gems on hit is inherent to the weapon hitting.

But if it procs all skills linked will proc following the order of the sockets, only if using RT, Romira's banquet and Voll's devotion in that example. You gain charges between each discharge with those items, that makes each subsequent discharge go off.

So again if using the above items, 30% of attacks, all discharges will go off as you gain charges in between each and 70% of attacks, nothing happens.

Makes more sense ?

If I stand inside my Orb of Storms and use Discharge, while having Power Charges. Will the additional bolt released by Orb o Storms benefit from the power charges, or are they gone before the crit roll of Orb of Storms is done?

Using discharge, your power charges need to be consumed to trigger the additional bolts so they are gone at that point.

Hello, I have a question about Innervate support. I connected it with my firestorm and now there is written it support that firestorm with 15% chance to shock and gain onslaught for 5 seconds on kill shocked enemy but I never shocked enemy because i have never gained onslaught. Please help

In order to shock you need to do lightning damage. Firestorm does only fire damage.
