  • When cast on the ground with no heroes within 750 radius, it still provides the 175/250/325/400 range flying vision and True Sight.
    • Provides the True Sight first, so that invisible heroes still take damage.
  • When targeting a unit, vision and True Sight are provided at its position upon cast. The vision is stationary, it does not follow the unit.
    • However, When the ground is targeted but the bolt hits a hero, the vision is centered on the targeted point, not the found hero.
  • The flying vision and True Sight last for seconds. The True Sight is provided by an aura, and its debuff lingers for 0.5 seconds.
  • Searches for enemy heroes, illusions and creep-heroes when targeting ground. Whichever is the closest gets hit.
  • When targeting the ground, it can hit an enemy hero up to 1225 (TalentsTalents 1425) range away (cast range + search radius).
  • In order to hit a non-hero unit, it must be directly targeted.
  • Plays some lightning particles and a sound effect during the cast time, which are visible and audible to everyone.

  • The clouds Cast regular Lightning Bolts on the closest valid enemy target, based on Lightning Bolt's current level.
    • This means it also applies the mini-stun and provides vision and True Sight around the target.
    • It also means that the clouds do nothing if Lightning Bolt is not learned.
  • The damage source are the clouds themselves, meaning certain on-damage effects react on the Nimbus rather than on Zeus.
  • The base interval of the Lightning Bolts is affected by percentage-based cooldown reductions ( Octarine Core).
  • The clouds start striking immediately upon cast if an enemy is within range.
  • Also strike immediately when the last strike was longer than an interval ago and an enemy enters the area.
  • Can strike up to 6/7/8 times over its full duration, considering default strike interval.
  • Does not require vision over the targets. The clouds can strike invisible units and units inside the Fog of War.
  • The clouds always strike the closest valid target. There are no priorities.
