    21. Krysta Bolt II (LV46): Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 170. Additional Effect: has 25% chance of procing Krysta Bolt III adding slow to it.
    -TP Cost: Medium / Cast Time: Instant /Cooldown: 2.5s /Range: 25y

    25. Krysta Bolt III (LV54): Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 230. Additional Effect: Lowers attack Speed. (Only when Proc.)
    -TP Cost: High / Cast Time: Instant /Cooldown: 2.5s /Range: 25y
    So question on these as this seems to be basically their main damage (as Stone is to WHM) but why would they use Bolt 2 over 3? Slow doesn't seem to be a good incentive to use 2 unless the drain is massive (like SMN using Ruin 3 out of Dreadwyrm), now when I see it as "High" i'd like to think that, so perhaps changing it from adding slow, let Krysta 2 have a chance to proc Krysta 3 for no TP cost and instant cast at a much lower chance of procing (maybe 10%?)

    Just an idea cus as I view it now, I have a hard time seeing why they would bother using 2 when slow usually doesn't affect bosses and they build up immunity over time vs just going for the pure higher damage.

    Seems like that would be a silly reason if they did. "Need 1 Chemist for Alex savage" just the idea of an Alchemist showing up... /shrug.
