Isnt eye of perception better for Wriothesley then? Higher attack bonus and its "bolt" bounce "between opponents", same attack percantage for passive Strike (360%). Just lower chance... but honestly, he is dps: 50% is decent chance - while not needing cryo afflicion, if there is a different element sub-dps.
