double strike + ancestral call + melee spash + tribal fury aoe question

I plan to make build using those gems for the next league and I wonder about how the mechanics will work with these combination.

I hit 1 enemy with double strike and so also hit 2 others thanks to ancestral call, but if I have tribal fury I hit 2 enemies at once, and so giving 4 hits in 1 attack/click, does my ancestral call also hit 2 enemies? and so does the melee splash damage I do to 1 of the 2 enemies I hit affect the other enemy? and does it also affect my ancestral call? so do I, in 1 click/attack, hit 12 times (me and my ancestral call attacking 6 enemies in 1 attack twice with double strike), doing 12 melee splash, and every splash hit every surrounding enemies?

Does the 6 enemies will take 2 hits each and also take 11 melee splash damage from every other splash/hits from the hits I did to the other enemies? doing a massive melee splash explosion hitting every enemies multiple times?

Confusing I know, I am confused myself.

Tribal fury does exactly the same thing as ancestral call. If you use both it just adds to the total, so 3 additional nearby enemies. Meaning you would strike 4 different enemies with both hits of the Double Strike. Melee Splash will happen on all these hits. If Melee Splash overlaps, enemies will be hit multiple times. In the optimal setup (4 enemies, all near enough eachother) this would mean you hit all 4 enemies 2 * 4 = 8 times.

Wonderful, thank you very much :)

Double Strike + Ancestral + Splash can be really nice for destroying packs quickly. Single-target is pretty bad though. You definitely want to have alternatives available to slot in as needed for bossing and such.

I definitely will, I won't use those gems against bosses.
