Ethereal Knives

People asking for buffs on an overpowered skill is just silly.

I do have a point, actually. Why else would I ask what yours is? You just didn't pick up on it, it seems. So here it is, spelled out:
Your comment is entirely disconnected from the previous posts; nobody was asking for a buff. I do not see the relevance of your post, and so I ask, what exactly is the point you're making? |

The people who are complaining that it is underpowered seem to be asking for a buff.

does rustic sash increases dmg of EK?
|
|

yes, rustic sash says increased physical damage, and doesn't care about method of physical damage. however its a small boost (3 to 5 percent) so you won't notice it till much later.

I have been playing PoE for quite some time now and tried out a decent amount of character builds. Never could I understand the common critisism of the game being "slow", "sluggish", "clunky" or "unresponsive". That is until I tried playing with Ethereal Knives. Yes, the spell is powerful, but the animation and the time until you can move again feel like taking forever. This was a big issue for me and I found playing this character less enjoyable than other casters I've built. My main concern is that to new players judging the game it matters little that the spell might feel better once you get a ton of increased casting speed. This spell, in my opinion, is the prime example for rightful usage of the aforementioned adjectives - and this is coming from a player who could never relate to people using these terms to describe PoE.

the skill might seem ok in its normal form but the fact it scales with fork,chain,add fire dmg gems so well and dmg auras makes it completely retarded

Now, mind you I've only been using this skill for a short time, but I have some feedback on it and this is only related to my experience and I'm sure a lot of what I'm saying has been said before.
Ethereal Knives is a cool skill, BUT - It only works for shadows because to make it usable at high levels you need to get some cast speed passives which rangers and duelists are nowhere near - It is a spell, so you would also need some "spell damage" passives to make it interesting. Perhaps you intended a tradeoff because of the 9+ projectiles, but the skill already punishes itself by having a pretty short distance of effect. Is this intended to be used purely by shadows? If so, then fair enough. It fills that small niche, I guess. But if this is truly supposed to be an overall practical skill to have then some adjustments should probably be made, IMHO. I was planning on building a ranger around it only to realize early on that "Faster Attacks" and attack speed passives as well as my weapon damage had no effect on the skill whatsoever. |
