Dugan was a lineman who worked on live substation lines. When the Haze took his hands, the Rusted forged copper ones, and he took a red coil off a dead transformer and wears it on his back. It runs on stolen current, so he cranks the dynamo in his chest to keep it humming

Chain Lightning
Lightning hits the target and jumps to the four nearest enemies, each within 3 cells of the last and never the same twice: 110 magic damage, each next one takes 20% less than the one before. Each charge of Static on a target adds 20% damage and is spent, and a target with three charges is stunned for 0.75 s, no more than once per 6 s

How to play
Keep him in the second row. Lightning Rod lays charges early, so the first Chain Lightning often hits a target with three of them: extra damage and a Stun. Taunts and pulls that bunch enemies up give the lightning more targets to jump to
