Psychic-Sin patch 1.1.3

Correct. I used this skillplan until I got Mind rake (gives me 15% chance lvl 60 doom after kill). But max psionic storm i need in TP zones in Dancraig for fster killspeed. Also storm works very well against bosses (kabraxis, astrogha, xazax etc.). Sorry for bad english

Nice vids, good job.

Just as an aside to anyone who doesn't know - procs inherit base level bonuses if you have the skill in your tree. I.e. the doom proc on that claw will give more bonus damage to each hit and more magic pierce with each base level you have in doom.

I got bored with limpet and claw sin so I have been trying to play around with the psychic tree since I found the mind rake in a ta run. So far the damage output of flurry feels good even with not total endgame gear necrobots melt really quickly also I think its much faster and safer with an act 5 merc cause he does all the tanking , I also use a bane claw and a ix rw assa shield on switch in fautz. Usually I am lazy to record a video and you can see that from the video quality lol but here is a short video of me doing duncraig

On kill proc's only proc with Weapon damage and poison, correct? I am guessing you're getting the procs from queen of blade's poisoning the enemy at random then killing with Shuriken flurry?

Edit: Just noticed you weren't using queen of blades in the TA video, but I still saw Doom procs.. Unless you're a god at skill switching quickly, I didn't notice you skill switch. How are you proc'ing on kill exactly for the doom? My only other guess would be that Thunder arena carrys wdm, but that'd seem unreliable as a source of on kill... If true though, it's obviously reliable in high density area's given your video.

It procs when enemy is slain. not on kill.

Oh okay, just a misunderstanding from what he meant then. Gotcha.
