If an i/l uses chain lightning on ONE of zakum's arms, will it jump to the others? (i dont know how to explain it)

Simply put, yes. Try watching All ice archmages videos of zak runs on youtube. Or even normal runs with ice AM on it

I believe it can only reach all the arms on one side of his body. So you'd be hitting a maximum of four arms at once.

Last time I was at Zak I could hit up to 3-4 arms with CL (I tried using Blizzard, people complained about lag >_>) dependant on how the arms were swinging and subject to the availability of arms. If spamming CL on the floor, more often than not CL would travel from the bottom left arm, jump to the mid-bottom right, then down to the bottom right. If the bottom left arm died, then the mid-bottom would replace the bottom one. Rarely if ever did CL reach the top 4 arms if you were on the floor. I don't remember how it acted up top, but by then most of the arms were dead anyway. In short, it's all over the place.

its range is insane, especaily its jumping from monster to monster range. ive seen it go from one side to the other, hitting 6 arms at once.

Yes it will but damage will be reduced after each monster it hits.

No, it doesn't. The hitboxes on Zak's arms are weird. The most you will hit is 3, because CL always jumps to the bottom left arm and it stops there. It would make sense for CL to go from arm to arm, but it doesn't, even at the top. 3 arms max, 2 at the bottom.
