There's a heavy unbalance TK vs CL sorcs toward the first because of nature of charged bolts.
Maxing tk, cb, es now is better than chain as CB clears area really fast AND you perform very well vs bosses with very steady TK. CL allows you to clear trash from like 0.5 more screen away but that's all. Killing speed is about the same as CB.
How about redoing "lightning" skill? more steady damage but lower range than it's now. Whole idea of bouncing is just to provide "less cast, more tele" but is this really an issue?
BTW. CLightning and Lightning skills use different(slower, much) casting animations than any other sorcs skills including CB... 194 FCR (max) for CL is just like 20fcr for any non CL/L skills - 11frames. CB/TK/Fireball etc can hit easily 8frames or 7 frames with more effort.

Ie. bnet shockweb had a 25 frame next hit delay. throw a set of those at a boss when teamed with a strafezon or something and the strafezon can't do damage. Stupid mechanic, they should have coded it to effect the spell only imo.
