I don't understand your question.

edit: eli5 pls

Points in Maelstrom add to the number of projectiles thrown by Scorpion Blade (1 blade per 4 points).
Procs inherit synergies (when used on a character of the same class as the proc, that has access to those synergy skills).
'ctc Scorpion Blade on kill' throws extra knives with points in Maelstrom.
'ctc Scorpion Blade on striking' does not throw extra knives with points in Maelstrom.

adds projectiles to both.

I'm just checking that this is working as intended, I may as well redistribute those points in Maelstrom elsewhere.

After checking some old forum threads about the Assassin skill Doom, I've got a question. Doom (nowadays?) says it only benefits skills that deal physical damage. So, skills like Psionic Storm that only deal magic damage do not benefit from the -magic resistance debuff from Doom, correct?

Psionic Storm does not benefit from the Doom bonus dmg, piercing magic resistance works fine

Thanks, that's what I hoped. The skill description makes it sound like nothing of it works for non phsical skills so I wanted to ask first.

Will the launcher update the software or do I need to use the Download link on the web site?

And will it update as soon as the new patch hits 2 hours from now?

Blood Thorns or Lemures, which is better for clearing/single target on UHM?
