Lightning hits have a chance to Shock based on how much Lightning damage is dealt. damage from HitsHit DamageAny damage that isn't damage over time is Hit damage. Damaging Ailments which result from a Hit will calculate their damage from that Hit, and will not subsequently have Damage modifiers applied directly to them. As a result of this, raising Hit Damage will result in more powerful Damaging Ailments innately. ContributesDamage Contributing to AilmentsBy default, specific Ailments are calculated based on only specific damage types, such as only the Fire damage of a Hit mattering when inflicting Ignite. Allowing another damage type to contribute to an Ailment means that all damage of the relevant types is summed when performing calculations for that Ailment. For Ailments that use Hit damage to determine Ailment chance or buildup, this means that the damage type becomes capable of inflicting that Ailment. For Ailments that only use Hit damage to determine Ailment Magnitude (i.e. Bleeding and Poison), you still need a way to apply those Ailments (e.g. a source of Bleeding or Poison chance). to chance to Shock enemies.

A lower Elemental Ailment Threshold makes it more likely, and increases buildup of Freeze and Electrocute recieved. By default a player's Ailment Threshold is equal to half their Life. dealt.
