Welcome, fellow Archmages!
I was wondering if some of you knowledgeable types would be able to assist me with something I've been concerned about recently--good damage output via magicka.
My story is that I've been using a vampiric stealth mage for sometime now, and I've been faithful to the use of lightning spells as opposed to fire and ice magic. Now I'm starting to wonder if that's the best route for me. I've learned that two mage perks (Aspect of Terror and Intense Flames) can be combined to make my fire spells pretty deadly. This makes me think I should start taking flame perks...
But how can I be optimizing my lightning damage? I just found the Zahkriisos mask over in Solstheim (50% shock resist, 25% more damage done by shock spells,) and my hopes have suddenly lifted on that subject. Is there any other item I should be made aware of? Are there tricks/perks used to maximize shock damage?
