Shocking

From Guild Wars Wiki

Shocking is a weapon upgrade that changes the damage type of a weapon to Lightning damage. This is commonly used against warriors, who have far less armor against elemental damage than physical damage. This also helps in triggering the effects of Glimmering Mark, Thunderclap, and Conjure Lightning.
