with increased duration support (assuming the .25 second damage interval stays constant) you get 27 hits of 10% damage. with increased duration and the 270% damage, you get roughly 7 seconds worth of damage from it for a .75 second cast. (1.5x1.74x2.7)

seems worth it to me, throw on a faster casting or something to make it quicker, only thing i would worry about is possibly physical reflect, but it should be low enough.

It has nothing to do with the ranged portion. This is why +1 strikes or ancestral call is so important on the build, is the entirety of the skill hits twice at the correct range. This is not possible without +1 strike or ancestral call

Multistrike is fine for base lightning strike, but does absolutely nothing when using the vaal skill.

+3 levels in nightblade does very little. Look at gem info, the breakpoint after 21 then 26 for crit strike chance. Multiplier would go up by 3% which is a waste of a node.

The 3 levels in real pretty good. It gives +6% crit multi and +6% elusive effect
Critical multi from nightblade scales with elusive(check on wiki) and pob unfortunately doesn't count it(it is also why you need withering step - it resets bonus). So, in total it is like 16% crit multi, 1% avoidance, 1% ms. Not very bad for 1 skill point
p.s. nightblade still old on wiki, check on poedb https://poedb.tw/us/Nightblade_Support

Feel free to add this in. I am not as I do not use withering step as the build is already quite interaction heavy with totems, vigilant strike and hitting Vaal LS. My Old body can only handle so many button clicks :)

Yes, I was thinking about it for bosses - It should be a decent 1-link extra boost of dmg, right?

On the other hand, just trying a few practice runs - why do we start with steel skills instead of frost blades from the get go? it works quite well early game

I watched the video but I am not sure when I should not use trinity support. In case I can't use anger?

I'm surprised no one bought up multistike as a link. Attack speed is so good for clear and feelsgood experience. Ideally we want to have as much AS as possible without taking a big damage hit.
