• Shock Blast will fire from wherever Jayce is at the end of the cast time.
• Upon touching Acceleration Gate, the enhanced missile gains its remaining range equal to [ 1600 units - travelled distance of the standard missile ].
  • This means that the range of the enhanced Shock Blast is always the same, regardless of how early or late it interacted with Acceleration Gate.
  • Supercharging the Shock Blast as soon as possible, however, will improve its average speed significantly.
    • For this, Jayce must stand inside or very close to the Acceleration Gate, or place it very close to himself right after Shock Blast's cast time.
• Shock Blast's effect radius is centered around the location of the missile as it collides.
  • Shock Blast will always damage the enemy it collided with, even if it is so large that it is outside the effect radius.
• The non-enhanced Shock Blast detonation has a slightly smaller sight radius than the radius in which it deals damage.^(bug)
