Crackling Energy has been one of the boons of a Sorcerer Lightning Build as these do not only give you a buff that damages enemies around you once collected, but they also provide a lot more.
One of the other ways to take advantage of Crackling Energy is to use the Charged Aspect, which provides you with an increase in Movement Speed when you collect them.
The Charged Aspect is a great way to keep the Sorcerer mobile since enemies tend to catch up to you now and then.
Charged Aspect Effects (Crackling Energy Aspect)
The Charged Aspect triggers when you have collected Crackling Energy, which can drop when you are using your Lightning Skills. (Passives affect this)
Once you pick up Crackling Energy, you will gain a Movement Speed bonus based on a certain percentage that lasts for 4 seconds.
This is useful for the Sorcerer as they need to keep away from enemies to avoid taking too much damage and can use this to relocate quickly.
Charged Aspect Location
The Charged Aspect can be unlocked by completing the Maddux Watch Dungeon, which can be found in the Highland Wilds south of Under the Fat Goose Inn. (Scosglen)
How To Get Charged Aspect? (Maddux Watch Walkthrough)
1) Return the Mechanical Box to the Pedestal
Once you enter the Maddux Watch, you will be inside the Abandoned Outpost, where you will need to search for a Mechanical Box to take back to a Pedestal.
2) Travel to the Crypt of Unrest
Upon placing the Mechanical Box on its Pedestal, a Bookshelf will open to reveal a secret passage that you will take to reach the Crypt of Unrest.
3) Destroy the Skeletal Constructs
There will be 3 Skeletal Constructs in the Crypt of Unrest, which need to be destroyed before you can make your way to the dungeon boss.
Each of these will spawn enemies as well as an elite that will attack you every time you attack a Skeletal Construct.
4) Travel to the Ossuary of Echoing Anguish
Now that the Skeletal Constructs have been destroyed, you will need to make your way to the Ossuary of Echoing Anguish.
5) Defeat the Tomb Lord
Once you reach the Ossuary of Echoing Anguish, you will encounter a Tomb Lord, whom you must now defeat to complete the dungeon.

Verdict
The Charged Aspect is good for a Sorcerer Lighting Build that needs you to stay away from enemies as this can help you avoid taking too much damage.
It is also great for relocating when you need to aim your skills better and since you can collect Crackling Energy often, you will always be quick on your feet.
Sorcerers have several passives that can create Crackling Energy, making it possible to gain a Movement Speed bonus often.
