How Thunder Mitts Works

Thunder Mitts adds a passive lightning strike whenever your attacks hit an enemy. The effect has a global 10s cooldown and is available from the start of the game once you begin a run.

Does Attack Speed help?
Attack Speed doesn’t shorten the 10s cooldown, but frequent hits ensure the strike procs as soon as the cooldown ends (community observation; not officially documented).
