Nope, on some film on YT you can see that its shatter after each chain :)

Prior version of the skill, not the current. As per Mark and/or Bex, the shards only get released on the collision instance that destroys the initial projectile, like fireball and arctic breath. Which means until the final chain it won't shatter.

What's the attack speed going to be based on here? Is it the speed of the main hand weapon?

shields are being given a base of 1.2 aps, the gem then gives 20% more attack speed afaik.

edit: ull still probably want a mainhand attackspeed roll for your movement skill, but that will be its only function it would seem.

Ah ok thanks

Will CoC be worth it?

CoC shield throw with Etheral knives as your spell?

Stack projectile and physical damage buffs, try to convert to chaos as much as possible?

not better than using poets pen

I think this skill is very cool and the implementation is awesome.

I cant see it being top tier in single target or aoe though.

SSP + facebreaker + rigwalds and Lioneyes Remorse ..... FUCK OP ... WHAT ? OMG?

Doesn't work. SSP is offhand, not unarmed.

With this skill being added I feel like there should also be proper melee shield slam skill with similar mechanics. Just copypast Smite from DII would do.
