Voltez

**Voltez, the Soul of Echoing Thunder** is a Ranged Vessel in Syndicate of Souls.

Excelling at long-range combat, Voltez acts like an artillery by launching area of effect spells from great distances which are further enhanced with Grounding Current. Kugelblitz helps contain enemies or keep them away from certain points, but those foolish enough to brave it risk paralysis, which sets up a quick barrage of Charged Lightning from on high. Although Voltez suffers from Mana issues, its sustain is enhanced through passive mana restoration on auto attacks.

Voltez is a Mana user.
