What is the totem targeting range?
Sorry if it's been asked before, but I couldn't find it via searching. Basically curious as to what exactly has happened to spark. The last time I used it was right after the interaction with fork nerf. The gem says the base duration is now 1.5s but after casting the spell it still seems to last for 3.5s(that is the sparks crawling on the ground stay there for 3.5s). Just wondering if spork totem builds are still viable now, or if I should be looking into another spell to use with totems. I know in general spark was supposed to be nerfed, I just can't find exactly how it was.

Thank you so much! I've wanted to know skill radiuses forever. A few things were missed that might be helpful:

Reave
Radius of effect on items (Leer Cast)
Freeze Mine
Ice Shot cone?
Melee Splash AOE
Smoke Mine
Cold Snap

Also, how does radius AOE work for something like ground slam? It's visually hard to tell the shape of these things, so it seems to me Ground slam is more of a cone. Is it that cone that has radius 35? Then does increased AOE just affect the distance and not width?

Also, if I'm to understand this right, Cyclone is the only weapon AOE skill that uses your weapon's range? As such, getting Master of the Arena to increase weapon range wouldn't increase the AOE of something like Cleave at all?


Thanks

This statement is not entirely true. Some On hit effects from skills like Glacial Hammer and Viper Strike will still apply because block doesn't prevent a successful hit.

Why the heck is Cast Speed so valuable?

-I put on 40% Spell Damage, -20% Cast Speed gloves and lose DPS.
-The Cruel Bandits quest gives twice as much attack speed as cast speed, even though they both affect skill usage with the same formula.

What gives?

Ground Slam has a 90° cone with the given radius. Increased AoE will affect the radius of the cone but not the angle.

Bonuses to weapon range don't increase the AoE of Cleave, no.
one fast question:

if would have two the same curses, one lvl 10, and one lvl 15, if i would cast lvl 10 on top of 15, will it replace it or leave the better one be?
Why did you patch and open the beta?

does shock duration calculate from only lighting damage done by your attacks or does it apply to all damage?

so if you deal 100 physical and 100 lightning to a target, does shock duration calculate based on 100 damage or 200?
