When it comes to abilities that hit multiple times (Storm Crow, Wyrmshot), etc. Does each missle convey all of your on hit properties?

Example with made up numbers:
If i have a flying knife that has 20% change to cast Scorpion Blade
Storm Crow has 20 "bolts"... Does each bolt have a 20% chance to cast a blade, or does the attack as a whole have 20% chance? I think each individual bolt has its own chance to hit so my assumption is the latter.

FYI thanks to everyone who posts replies in this thread, it can often be a thankless job and you are a huge help to a new player like myself!

yes, each missle carries all "on striking" properties.
In your example, that would be 20 times 20% chance to proc. That would average 4 (20*0.2) sorcpion blade procs per use of stormcrows.

Is it any worth to farm Ubers on Hatred or Terror? And if so, which one?

Ubers on terror can drop set pieces. So that can be useful if destruction is a little to tough.

I've been directed to Tran Athula and cows on terror for farming them.

Is it possible to make the blade spirit better? Their attack speed feel weak compare to other summon.

You can farm Hatred TA and K3KBA for ilvl 60 jewelry. Gives early access to +Skills and other decent mods. Some Ubers in Hatred also give good XP. In Terror, generally: TA for Sets, Fauzt for Shrines, K3KBA for Sets and Shrines, T-Cows for Sacred base items. Maybe Torajan Jungles for sigs (IDK what sig drop rate looks like in Terror).

Can't increase their attack speed. Only way to boost them is with more points, Sorc passives, +minion life/damage/res mods, and some buff/debuff skills/oskills (Vindicate, Bane, etc.). Blade Spirits aren't like Necro summons. Generally, they're meant more for keeping enemies off your back long enough for you to kill things.

Tal Rasha's Tomb -> Duriel's Lair. The entrance is just to the right of where you met Tyrael. Looks like the opening to the Maggot Lair.
