Behavior
The Voltmage will start off by chasing the player, summoning lightning bolts occasionally After every 5 seconds, he will cast a powerful attack that summons 15 lightning bolts in front of him in a small radius, adding 1 randomly spawning lightning bolt each attack. He then continues to chase the player and will go back to summoning occasional bolts, with more bolts being cast the longer the battle has gone on. Each lightning bolt does. When summoning the lightning barrages, he will gain a forcefield until the lightning ends.

When damaged enough, the Voltmage will cast blue lightning and summon a Switch Droid 3.0. He will only summon 2 Switch Droids in the fight, one when he's at approximately 2/3 and another at 1/3.
