New Arc able to trigger shock?

Hello guys,

New version on Arc will create a lightning explosion on hitting shocked enemy, but cannot shock by itself.
What about the Stormweaver ascendancy point Sharper of Storms, which give you "all damage from hits contribute to shock chance"? Will it negate that Arc trait od not being able to shock? If yes, that open many possibilities for building Arc Sorceress.

If not that ascendancy, how about Kitoko's Current
Jewelled Gloves? Maybe they will help?

I want to create some Arc build after update, but I'm not very experienced player and I'm not sure if I can trigger Arc to shock, for improving quality od life while clearing and not being forced to usw other skill just to apply shock on many monsters at once.

It shouldn't work. Arc will be unable to inflict Shock by any way (like any other ability that have similar behavior - Pay-Off ability). But you can use the gloves and trigger Electrocute with Arc.

Thank you! Another question- does electrocution counts as shock? I mean od Arc will trigger explosion on shocked enemies, can it explode on electrocuted enemies?

I didn't try electrocute but if you stand in Orb of Storms the Orb will shoot with Arc and will shock enemies, using expanse support on Orb to make it bigger helps, spell cascade would be another option too.
