Overload fills your Special slot. Burst special ability of the spirit school. Base damage 41. Cast 12 ticks, cooldown 45 ticks. Radius 3.4 at up to 5 units.
You get it by equipping 17 bases across 6 lines: Auroralens Staff, Conduit Staff, Goldenchord Staff, Stormlens Staff and Tidelight Staff and 1 more.
The draft can bend it 6 ways — Echo, Reach, Area, Force, Duration and Critical — and cards that ask for area, critical, on_hit and resource_spender will find it.
Between rooms it can be offered 142 cards: 33 written for it specifically, plus the 109 that any ability can take. Those cards can put Shock, Distortion, Brand and Chill on it, and attune it to Storm, Void, Holy and Frost.
7 Uniques are built on gear that hands it to you: The Unbroken Sentence, Petrichor, Rifthunger, Doxology, Clap of Thunder, The Short Fuse and Aurora Fan.
