Tried it out lately. Sadly I have neither sky spirit nor devils dance and so far the build sucks. The attack speed of a great crossbow is too slow. If guess a normal crossbow would be much better. Anyway: the killspeed RN is far worse than a crafted bow with arrows on striking. Mainly due to the attack speed.

Because you're using a heavy crossbow. That's obviously slower. Repeating has the best speed and fairly high average base damage, no?

Plus as its nearly all electric, you'll want crushing blow (elfin weapons and other gear) for immunes, and -135 enemy lightning

Heavy and repeating have the same wsm now. Without the fiend aura its 680 ias to hit 11 frames with either of those xbows, 215 if aura is active. Prior to this patch the repeating xbox had a -20 wsm which made having fiend aura unnecessary to keep speed capped. Now its mandatory unless a slot or two is sacrificed for wolf stance or some form of skill based speed. Sky Spirit and Devil's Dance add 25 and 50% ias respectively, making them even more important than before.

Yes exactly. Even with 200 ias it was 2 frames slower than the bow with around 140 ias.

I'll have to try again with a different crossbow.
I had around 60% -enemy lightning resist but I guess I can get some more :D

Stormblast is useless to you without any weapon damage to boost it. It's not a spell-based damage output, so it will be weak in comparison. Supernova looks fun, but it's a very weak spell. Great aoe, not so great damage.

Lemures is kinda meh, but you can make it work I guess. You need more pierce and cold spell to make it worth using, since it's your main attack and you seem to have gone full lightning. Switch your boots out for a sacred craft for more cold spell and pierce if you want that. Hibagon doesn't do a whole lot for your build since you're going to be in melee range anyways. The reanimates have nice auras, but it isn't a playstyle to use them as tanks while you sit behind for DPS output.

Overall, it's a pretty standard Unholy Melee Pala setup. Check out the Blood Knight guide in the Guides Section.
