Skill & Behavior

Primary: Greater Fireballs (Cannons)

The Greater Wisp charges two fireballs (one from each hand) for 2 seconds (scales with attack speed), which travel at 76m/s and disappear after 5 seconds. Each fireball explodes upon impact, dealing 300% with a proc coefficient of 1.0 in a radius of 7m with linear falloff. This attack has an end lag of 2 seconds, which also scales with attack speed.

This skill has a cooldown of 3 seconds.

Behaviors

1. Use primary and flee: the Greater Wisp must be within 15m from its target. The primary is not necessary to be off cooldown. This behavior will be active for 0.5 seconds.
2. Use primary: the Greater Wisp must be within 15-50m from its target and have line of sight. While the skill can be executed on the move, the Greater Wisp will stop. This behavior will be active for 1 second. As a result, it will look like that upon activating the skill the Greater Wisp will stop for 1 second, after which another behavior will be chosen (since the primary will be on cooldown), during which the monster will move while still charging the attack.
3. Chase: no requirements.

Notes

• A Greater Wisp will finish "casting" its fireball even after death, though it will be fired in a random direction.
• If the Greater Wisp is stunned while casting its fireballs, it will immediately interrupt it. Comparably, the Brass ContraptionBrass Contraption
