How to use Storm’s Pulse
Storm's Pulse makes arrows fly 50% faster and changes their damage type from Sharp to Energy. Energy can pop Frozen Bloons but cannot pop Purple Bloons. The more important change is the attack speed ramp: the maximum bonus from repeated hits rises from +50% to +100%, reached after about 20 shots.
When to buy it
- It pays off in long fights, where the Skywarden keeps hitting and stays at full speed.
- If you only need Frozen popping, Shatterpoint is usually better, because it keeps Sharp damage and does not lose Purple.
- It is the step to Thundering Arc, which is usually an improvement thanks to extra pierce.
The projectile speed boost on its own makes little difference.
Is it worth it?
Mostly as part of the path 2 route. Choose it as a crosspath only when a Skywarden will be attacking for long stretches and Purple is handled elsewhere.
