does Ball Lightning fires an additional Projectile works like echo or lmp?

just got the enchant and it looks like 1 projectile lesser multiple projectiles

im wondering if the mobs get hit by the 2 projectiles like echo, or by 1 projectile like lesser multiple projectiles?

thank you

Edit, just put it at the same time as lmp and it definatly looks like just one more projectile thats wont shotgun.

P.S. if we had dummies in our hideout i could test the damage in less then 20 seconds...

Hello there.

Yes, bug excepted, that enchant works like you stated.
For the other scenario, GGG usually use the words "chains" or "repeats" instead.
PLEASE QUOTE ME IF YOU ARE EXPECTING A REPLY

All sources of additional projectiles work in the same way, it is the same modifier that is just added together.

Spell Echo is something different, it makes you cast the spell twice in a row. Two distinct casts don't have any special rules against shotgunning.

While it is true that all sources of added projectiles work the same way, the same cannot be said about the skills these added projectiles are applied to, since there are some that function differently then most: Storm Burst, Barrage, Cremation and the new Rain of arrows. The former three always add additional projectiles sequentially, meaning all projectiles are fired one after another rather than simultaneously on each use of the skill (though barrage is once again an exception due to its threshold jewel, but I digress). Rain of arrows uses a completely new system, it's kinda hard to explain, but the official post has pretty much all the information about it.

For the given example of ball lightning the cases I just mentioned are completely irrelevant though.
I make dumb builds, therefore I am.
Cremation and Rain of Arrows are bad examples for this, because they dont really use the "projectile mechanic". These two skills are you using projectiles, that target the ground and create an aoe, and because of this are not affected by any shotgunning enforcment.
the wording of the enchant had me wrongly thinking it would be like barrage having another projectile, i was very disapointed and i've wasted some exals on that
