==Strategy==
−
'''Lightning Bolt''' is a [[Nature]]-based [[Direct Damage|direct damage]] spell. It is the only spammable damage spell for the Shaman and one of the primary damage spells for elemental Shamans.
 
  +
Before you engage him, it is wise to kill all the [[Ironbark Protector]]s in the area around the entrance, as they are linked with Tendris and will [[aggro]] as soon as you attack. If these are cleared ahead of time, this should not be an especially difficult fight.

== Notes ==
 
−
*It uses the lightning animation instead of the normal nature animation.
 
−
*When compared to a [[Mage]] {{ability|Frostbolt}}, this does slightly less DPS. However, when coupled with [[Lightning Mastery]], Lightning Bolt can do more damage at 2 sec cast. However, Frostbolt may be more effective with it's [[chill]] effect on enemies, useful in both [[PvP]] and [[PvE]].
 
−
*Has traveling time, so can be combined with {{ability|Chain Lightning}} or a [[Shock]] which are instant for spike damage.

==Tips and tactics==
 
−
*This is a good spell to start the fight and pull enemies until level 75 when you can learn {{ability|Lava Burst}}. Untalented and used against a foe with no speed boosting abilities at max range, you can cast 3 Lightning Bolts in the span of time it takes for a mob to reach you. You can even cast a [[shock]] just as the 3rd Lightning Bolt finishes casting to max out damage against a pulled, incoming mob.
 
−
*It is also more likely to use during combat because of its 2.5 second casting time as opposed to other classes' similar function spells ({{ability|Shadowbolt}}, {{ability|Fireball}}), and is fairly mana-efficient.
 
−  
−
== Past changes ==
 
−
*In [[Patch 2.3]], cast time reduced to 2.5 (from 3.0 where applicable), mana costs reduced, benefit from spell damage have been modified to maintain the DPS of the the previous, longer casting time.
