Thunder Sword

The is a Legendary Melee Weapon obtained through merging.
== Merging Recipes ==
* Frost Sword + Flame Sword
== Usage ==
This weapon swings three times in a loop, with every third swing being a full-circle rotation attack.
Each swing fires 5 electric beams in a 144° arc, while the spin fires 10 electric beams in a 360° arc.
When the blade hits a target, it will summon a lightning strike that hits the target. The lightning can bounce from enemy to enemy in a certain range until up to 5 times.
All attacks apply Stun on critical hits.
If the player is out of energy, swinging the sword will not shoot electric beams. The chain lightning attack functions normally.
== Tips ==
=== Strategies ===
Although the weapon fires multiple electric beams, these cannot deal high damage, but it can still Stun them. As such, it is more effective to use them as a way to immobilize enemies and use the lighting for damage.
The lightning's ability to damage multiple targets allows it to kill multiple tough enemies quickly. It also protects the player with the Stun debuff, immobilizing enemies and allowing the player to close the distance to troublesome enemies and hit them with the full damage of the attack.
=== Recommended Buffs ===
* Laser Buff - Increases the width of electric beams and the lightning and gives +2 damage for the lighting.
* Bounce Buff - Allows the beams to bounce once and the lightning to bounce 1 more time.
* Elemental Buff - Allows the weapon to deal double damage on critical hits.
* Shotgun Buff - Increases the number of beam to 7/7/18.
* Reflect Buff - Allows the weapon to reflect enemies' bullets.
* Melee Range Buff - Increases the melee range.
* Energy Orb Buff - Helps with the energy usage.
== Trivia ==
* This weapon was added in Update 2.2.0.
** There was a glitch where Assassin's Doppelgänger clones could not use this weapon, but would instead perform the default Assassin melee attack while wielding it. This was patched in Update 2.2.2.
* Before Update 2.8.0, this weapon's rarity was Orange/Epic instead of Red/Legendary, meaning that it could use Attachments. However, it could only equip a Grindstone of Common rarity.
* While the weapon icon shows a plain sword, it is always wrapped in lightning effect in action.
** This lightning sprite will always hover above anything else.
* The color of the lightning is the same as the color of the 1st skill of the current Wizard's skin, as long as it is not a modified skill effect.
** Examples include "Nine-tailed fox", "Heroine Mu Guiying", "Sacred Aether Pope" and "Mikan Ko" skins.
* A few changes around the stats:
Version	Energy cost	Number of beams(shotgun buff)(swing / spin)	Damage of beams(laser buff)	Critical chance	Inaccuracy
2.2.0 	4 	5 / 10 	4 	30 	0
2.3.0 	4 	7 / 12 	4 	30 	5
2.4.0 	6 	8 / 18 	3 	20 	5
