I kind of don't understand how you have 10k single target with that. What level are you?

Yea it could work and potentially be interesting however there is no apparent reason to use it over other supports.

so is it better to replace GMP with rain of splinters? and use lets say added cold or maybe chaos?

this is my gear atm:

i'm level 90 atm and my gmp dps is 26.3k with no frenzy
I replaced my gmp with added cold (didnt want to mess with colors more while leveling) and put rain of splinters in my tree and it does seem to help clear speed. Im only 57 atm but it makes my 4l setup that had the gmp only ~200 dps less than my single target 4l setup, and way higher than my old gmp 4l. Looks to be a viable tactic since you can drop using a single target setup altogether. That frees up some gem slots for other uses. This of course could change if you were comparing 5 or 6 link setups.

Yea you need to use it TOGETHER with LMP, as it otherwise doesn't have enough spread. The damage will still be higher than using GMP though =)

Your clear speed is slower because you are not playing dual sb's properly. These are not your average totems like flame or shockwaves that you put in the middle of the pack and they vaporize everything. Sb's are long range artillery-type totems, so to be efficient with just rain of splinters, you never place them right on top of the pack, but like 20-30 yards to a side diagonal to the mobs behind the particular pack you want to kill (if you can see/know where they are) so that pierces from the first pack end up in the second, killing both. The ideal situation is when the mobs run after you and none go for the totems, then the clearing speed is satisfactory.
