When this perk is unlocked, stunning Champions triggers a powerful Arc.png Arc-based response with both offensive and defensive benefits.

Champion Stunning

The perk activates when stunning any type of Champion:

Bolt Charge Grant

  • Instantly grants maximum stacks of Bolt Charge
  • Provides immediate access to Bolt Charge-based effects from other perks
  • Eliminates the need to build up Bolt Charge stacks gradually

Arc Bolt Effects

The triggered Arc bolt provides dual functionality:

  • Healing: Restores health to the player who stunned the Champion
  • Jolt Application: Applies Jolt to combatants damaged by the bolt

Jolt Mechanics

  • Jolted enemies chain Arc.png Arc damage to nearby targets

  • Synergizes with other Arc.png Arc-focused perks and abilities

Tier 5 Significance

As a tier 5 perk, Defibrillating Blast is considered essential for Arc builds and Champion-focused activities. It's frequently recommended as a must-have pick due to its combination of:

  • Personal healing utility
  • Crowd control through Jolt application

This perk transforms Champion encounters from defensive challenges into opportunities for significant tactical advantage and healing.
