History
- Prior to 0.27, Makhleb's Greater Destruction ability could cast this ability.
- Prior to 0.20, evoking a disc of storms would provide a similar ability.
- Prior to 0.15, drawing the Spark card from a deck of destruction at power level 2 (legendary deck) could cast this ability.
- In 0.14, the spell was renamed from Orb of Electrocution to Orb of Electricity.
- Orb of Electrocution was a level 7 Conjurations/Air Magic spell, which was replaced with Chain Lightning way back in 0.1. However, the game still has many ways to invoke electric orbs.
