Ravenous Horde - completely useless?

I remember asking in game chat earlier, and ppl ensured me that onslaught triggered for entire hoard of your minions, if one scored a kill and roll 30% chance.
But then i noticed this

Not a best screenshot, and you can barely see only one marker. But there actually two minions with onslaught marker.

So, that means after all that minions trigger onslaught separetly for each induvidual?
Isn't that pointless? I mean, 20 spiders not even that big count for summoner build. There surely build with so bigger count of minions.

If that was the case all minion builds would grab that node because this essentially translates into perma-onslaught for all your minions while mapping.
Each pack you kill is at least 10 mobs strong and you will constantly kill packs, so that 30% chance should trigger all the time for all your minions and thats clearly not whats happening.


Its still a somewhat useful node early on, if you do need the movespeed.
Other than that it is indeed pointless.

So? That's a major node. Plus it's not even actual 20% damage increase, since it would stack additively with other attack-speed modifiers.
30% chance for a single minion to get onslaught. That's 0.3% damage increase. And taht again prior to stacking with otehr attack speed modifiers.
