Because of the zero casting cost, Titan's Lightning Bolt is the most effective damage per spell point spent ratio.
The spell's damage is unaffected by the hero's proficiency in [[Air Magic]] or their [[Spell Power]].

Although Titan's Lightning Bolt appears to be a lightning-based spell, it is unaffected by the [[Pendant of Negativity]], unlike [[Lightning Bolt]] or [[Chain Lightning]].
It has been claimed, that a hero or a computer hero could learn Titan's Lightning Bolt from [[Conflux]] town with [[Aurora Borealis]]. However, this has not been verified.
