Static Discharge is a level 3 Conjurations/Air Magic spell which releases charges of electricity at one or more targets adjacent to the caster. It then has a chance based on spellpower to arc to another target adjacent to the victim, losing power as it does so. This can result in it arcing back to the caster, dealing low self-damage. The Arc Blade uses a particularly high-powered version of this spell for its special effect.
It does not affect electricity-resistant targets.
Monster Version
The monster version of Static Discharge is similar to the player version.
