Yep, clearly many ppl would have that thought. And it is obvious that devs want ppl to try ied throwsin with ATMG. But the real problem there for most sin bds is, they lack good AOE skills rather than single target dmg skills. And ATMG is just nothing but a single target dmg skill. Storm Crows is already good enough as boss killing skill for throwsin, what throwsin needs is a good AOE skill to clear mobs in high lvl maps efficiently, not another boss killing skill like ATMG.

Well dunno, im not obsessed with zooming and clear speed, to me atmg will be enough and for sure ill include broad as well. For this build which is going to be pure dex io can imagine this ass as good all rounder with a lot of avoid and max block.

Sure, just wondering about its clearing speed. Maybe Maelstrom + ATMG could do a more balanced job, dunno.

Storm crows has a rather good clear speed - at least above average compared to many other builds.

With the new throwing knife, I could imagine it being about the same, but boss killing speed will probably be better.
Losing the extra target from sky murder is a bit rough though.

Ye, u right. But imo, even with sky murder, Storm Crows' clearing speed is just OKay, not good in t8+ lab, let alone 2-targets version with new ied knife in 2.10. And I also doubt about how good will Maelstrom be in t8+ lab in 2.10. So like I said before: Imo, sin builds lack good AOE skills in general, not boss killing skills like ATMG.

There is a countdown timer on the top right of the forum page (this one) :)

it is literally impossible for the math to work that way.

ias is converted to animation speed with the same diminishing returns formula for everything and a hard cap at 75% more animation speed - faster base animation means faster all animations. if that give access to a new faster frame, that means the previous best frame's ias requirement is now lower. it seems very very difficult to justify calling that a penalty.

especially so for block, which in the current state of the game is just plain bad for you unless you can reach 4fpa or better
