Lightning rod Bugs

Hello there,

I would like to draw your attention to two issues that I have identified. First, the lightning rod skill is not functioning as intended when paired with the chance to fire an additional arrow. This is causing frustration for players, as it is not allowing them to take full advantage of the ability.

Secondly, there is a problem with the lightning rod and Rhoa mount. When using this combination and weapon set II, the lightning rod seems to be causing the player to fall off the mount every time. This is also causing frustration and preventing players from enjoying the game to its fullest potential.

Thank you for your attention to these issues. I appreciate your cooperation in resolving them as soon as possible.

I'm still a noob when it comes to PoE mechanics but I'll assume that "arrows" are just a subclass of "projectiles".

Currently the "% surpassing chance to fire an additional arrow" does not work on Lightning Rod and Tornado Shot. I cannot say if the "fire an additional arrow" rune works since I don't have one yet.
What does seem to work is +additional projectiles (Deadeye ascendency node or stolen rare monster modifier).

The texts for the 3 skills say:

Lightning Arrow (projectile class) - "Fire a charged arrow at the target. [...]"
Lightning Rod (projectile class) - "Fire an arrow that drops from above, [...]"
Tornado Shot (projectile class) - "Fire a skyward shot that whips up a Tornado where it lands, [...]"


There can be an argument made that additional arrow stuff not working on Tornado Shot might be WAI as the skill doesn't specifically mention it to be an arrow so it might be considered a projectile but Lightning Rod specifically classes it as arrows so the arrow stuff should work here and it's a clear bug.

This needs to be fixed ASAP in a hotfix as it has a huge impact on LA/LR builds!
