AoE Clearing
Invest in Area of Effect to cover more ground. Excellent for map clearing and handling packs efficiently.
Projectile Scaling
Extra projectiles (GMP) and Pierce/Chain/Fork dramatically multiply your clear. Choose based on mob density.
Ignite Potential
Fire skills can inflict Ignite for sustained DoT. Invest in Ignite Duration and Fire DoT multiplier for maximum burn damage.
Duration Matters
Duration scaling extends effect uptime. Less recasting = more time dealing damage. Invest in skill duration passives.
