Storm/ Blast - Storm Cell question

[Renatos1023]

My question is quick and easy (I think). For the proc damage that comes from Storm Cell, do you need to slot Accuracy and Damage into Storm Cell, or do those stats come from the Storm/ powers you are using to create the proc damage? This question is mostly geared towards lower levels (27+) when I'm running on basic IOs (not sets). Just wondering if I should be slotting Acc and Dam IOs into it.

 

Thanks y'all!

1 acc 2 recharge 1 damage 1 endredux is how I slotted mine with 25s.  It ended up with a set of Artillery for the ranged def.

Storm Cell creates a series of pseudo-pets. The debuffs (-speed, -jump, -recharge, -tohit) are autohit and ignore enhancements, but the lightning strikes require accuracy and are affected by damage enhancements. You definitely want accuracy and damage enhancements. Storm Cell has a 60s duration, a 60s recharge and follows you, so slotting recharge is less important.

It's movement is slow enough that you need to recast it pretty often on a team. Otherwise it tracks a spawn or two behind.
