Skill Gems - Create one!

I'd personally like to see the following more basic attack skills...

1) a Cleave-like attack that works with daggers & claws
2) a Sweep-like attack that works with 2-handed swords

(Sorry if these have been mentioned already... I'm short on time and haven't been able to go through the whole post)
Looks like someone missed their weekly meeting of Douchebag's Anonymous.

Lightning Bug
Blue skill gem
Reserves 25% mana
Summons 2 (+1 per 5 levels) lightning bugs that spin around the caster. Upon coming within a certain range of the character, the lightning bugs latch onto the target, giving them a level 1 shocked state and dealing a minor amount of lightning damage every couple seconds. Any spell-based lightning damage done to the target has a 25% additional shock chance and has a 750% higher minimum damage value.
Only 1 bug can be attached to a monster at a time.


Vorpal Blade
Blue skill gem
0.5 cast time
Calls forth a lightning-enchanted blade of energy that flies to the targeted location and begins spinning around that location, dealing lightning damage to any enemies it cuts. The blade lasts 10 (+1 per level) seconds and only one blade can be out at a time. Re-casting this ability while the blade is still out will cause the blade to move at your move speed to the targeted location, continuing to spin while traveling there.


I feel like added cold damage support is underused as it adds such a low and flat value, but I feel it would have a very good use on Vorpal Blade. Also, the lightning bugs would make Spark and Shock Nova much better as well, because it would make their damage much more consistent.
i too fas fo youuuuuuu
