Your clear speed in the docks seems abysmal in certain places, and that is just in the docks and with a 6 link, pen gem and elemental weakness on top and 2x doryani and rathpith. Higher gem levels do not seem to be very impactful as other skills judging from the progression.

I don't have a 6 link, but a 5 link, and my gems were level 9, I'm not sure what you'd expect. Seems from the rest of your comment you're pretty frustrated with this game, maybe you should consider taking a break or quitting altogether.

Might be interesting to test out Cybil's Paw with this build:



Since each ball hits each enemy 5 times per second you could potentially instantly heal a lot of HP when attacking mobs. Also, stacking block and spell block would help against reflect and lightning thorns as well. But I don't know if the instant leech is comparable even to 1% life leech from doryani's.

I have been using Three Dragons helmet with this build. It makes the enemies freeze in place which causes them to be in range of each ball for a bit longer than if they were walking towards you (and away from the balls moving past them). Good for clearing trash but maybe not as good for single target shock stacking on a boss or rare. Need to test more. Perhaps a good rare or an alpha's howl would still be better overall.

Both might be very interesting. One guy already did a freeze ball lightning build with the mask, it seems nice.

Uploaded a short demonstration of dps/clear speed on a 75 Plateau map.

What level is the gem now ? 'Cause killspeed is pretty bad stil :/

Doesn't seem bad at all to me, I'm not sure if you're used to low life spectral throw clear speed or what :D it was level 14 or 15 when I made the video.

Doesn't have to be lowlife ST with hundreds of ex of items to clear fast.
But if your gem is only level 15, better wait a bit more before commenting, it's still quite low for a lvl 75 map. Keep us updated when it reaches higher levels !

Of course, but I do not have that much time currently to play, so it won't be soon when I'll level it to 19, let alone 20.

I made the video just as a short demo of the skill even at that level to add some new content.

i respecced my 92 with to ball lightning and omg the clear speed and damage sucks so bad

any lightning resistant mob even trash skeletons took forever to kill in a 74 maze map using 6 linked ball lightning with light pen, echo, faster casting, inc aoe, added light dmg and having the arcing blows keystone

such a lackluster skill : /
