Vaporizing enemies having a vengeance, the Lightning Strike/Charged Strike Amazon is shockingly powerful. She's got a deadly current that decimates foes with lightning speed. Lightning Strike tears through dense packs of mobs, proving more efficient than Lightning Fury at coping with spread-out enemies. Her Charged Strike can also be even more formidable compared to the Lightning Fury Amazon, her sister build. Bosses, including Uber Bosses, melt before her. This Amazon boasts record-breaking Boss killing speed.

Wielding an Infinity Matriarchal Spear within the late game, there's practically nothing the Lightning Strike Amazon cannot shred. Having insane -x% to Enemy Lightning Resistance allows this build to effortlessly plow with the most Lightning Resistant mobs. This includes Lightning Immune monsters whose Immunity is broken by Crack from the Heavens. She performs the Electric Slide with amazing grace. If you would like a little danger and lots of fun, this lady will lead how!

This build guide assumes you've got a Character at Level 75 before transitioning into it. Check out our Amazon Leveling Guide and our General Leveling Strategies to reach Level 75.

Sunder Charm Setup

Patch 2.5 introduced a different way of breaking Immunities: Sunder Charms. Any enemy that might be Immune to your damage type is instead reduced to 95% Resistance before every other Resistance reductions apply. The Charm also reduces YOUR Resistance against the sundered damage type! Check out our post on Sunder Charms to explore these new Charms. The following setup uses Crack from the Heavens, letting you farm anywhere you would like.

Gear Changes

To optimize this Sunder Charm you'll need as much -% Enemy Lightning Resistance as you possibly can. Equip Infinity Matriarchal Spear and Griffon's Eye to do this.

Counteract the negative effect of Crack from the Heavens with Lightning Resistance Charms, Gloves, Boots, and Jewelry.
