== Advantages ==
* Electrical damage bypasses [[AV]] and [[DV]], making the mutation useful for killing well armored or evasive targets.
* Electricity will arc through multiple enemies, allowing for decent multi-target damage.
* At higher levels, gives an option for quick burst damage.
== Disadvantages ==
* Has terrible synergy with [[Electromagnetic Impulse]] and [[Electromagnetic Pulse]].
* All charges must be used at the same time.
* While the recharge time is reduced at higher levels, it is not affected by [[Willpower]].
