Tornado Shot
This skill is amazing, thank you so much for it.
Can you just confirm how does it work with point blank. Obviously the original arrow is affected by it but what about the explosion ? Doesit reset the distance or the 3 extra arrow are doing the same damage as the initial one? |

" i dont know how you did your test with fork but it does work,and it work very well.im using it right now and it really do a difference.its a bit hard to see but on big pack with fork you hit way more monster,way more often and more far since fork split and automaticly go on a monster.on small grp it does really well also since it shootgun a lot and they hit each other many many time.the dmg on single target is lower since fork reduce your dmg by 30% but when there 2-3 monster,it end up doing way more dmg |

" Toranado Shot like Freezing Pulse - 100% Chance to Pierce. Will never fork or chain. " Hmm.. Hm.. :( Last edited by krab90#7777 on Aug 22, 2014, 12:45:02 AM

" I just grab a bunch of mobs and shoot away from them to see if the arrows from the tornado hits any of the back line.
Spoiler
I just tested again, maybe it works but it is incredibly hard to see, meaning even if it does work it's such a small difference I don't feel it's worth. The thing is the arrows you shoot pierce 100% (not the arrows that come out from the tornado). It is like speccing split arrow with high pierce which should be good enough as an AoE clear. Fork reduces that damage, so it's sorta like weakening that and trying to make up for it with the tornado arrows. Maybe that is better (strong maybe which I don't believe it does), but Tornado Shot has really good single target capability which I don't want to weaken by using Fork. |

how is lmp/gmp affecting the explosion
lmp: fire 3 Arrows each exploding 3 Projectiles = 9 projectiles from Explosion gmp: fire 5 Arrows each exploding 3 Projectiles = 15 projectiles from Explosion lmp + gmp: 8 Arrows each exploding 3 Projectiles = 24 projectiles from Explosion or lmp: fire 3 Arrows each exploding 3+2 Projectiles = 15 projectiles from Explosion gmp: fire 5 Arrows each exploding 3+4 Projectiles = 35 projectiles from Explosion lmp + gmp: 7 Arrows each exploding 3+2+4 Projectiles = 63 projectiles from Explosion or different?

Fun skill, seems like decent damage. Playing with this currently in A1M as a level 53 ranger. Nothing else really to add just wanted to say I like it and it seems to be balanced.
You expect me to act as something I'm not? I picked this name for a reason.

" lmp= fire 3 tornado that each explode for 3 arrow=9 arrow gmp= 5 tornado that shoot 3 arrow each=15 arrow lmp+gmp=8 tornado that shoot 3 arrow each=24 arrow |

" Okay where do I start, first of all you're an idiot, tornado shot doesn't have abysmal damage at low levels. Tornado shot from my testing so far has been the single highest damage bow skill in 1.20 and the most versatile ranged ranger ability to date. I'm a pierce+crit evasion ranger so the normal 6L gem setup for this build is split arrow,faster attacks, added fire damage,increase critical strikes,Pierce, and physical projectile attack damage. One of the awesome aspects of tornado shot is that it pierces by default so a pierce gemm is not required in the support gem setup which frees up a socket for an additional support gem. It's also important to note that tornado shot at level 1 has more base damage than split arrow at level 8(that just happened to be the highest damage split arrow I had at the time to test with. when you link greater multiple projectiles in the free gem slot you get 5 individual tornado shots in a gigantically wide cone that all explode upon impact and shoot 3 arrows each making a total of 15 arrows projecting outward from a relatively close area. This skill is very effective at close range as it does have a "shotgun effect". |

I could be wrong, or even probably so, but fork and chain should actually work for Tornado Shot. They won't affect the initial shots, but they should work on the arrows that are spit out of the explosion.
