The only thing storm crows needs is a nice AoE radius for each knife. It is ridiculously slow to deal with large group of enemies with this skill that.

Thats why
Sky Murder
Sky Murder
Balanced Knife (Sacred)

Throw Damage: (163 - 182) to (370 - 390)
One-Hand Damage: (102 - 114) to (307 - 320)
Required Level: 100
Required Dexterity: 612
Item Level: 120
Dexterity Damage Bonus: (0.11 per Dexterity)%
+1 Extra Target to Storm Crows
+(3 to 4) to Assassin Skill Levels
50% Attack Speed
+200 to Maximum Damage
-30% to Enemy Elemental Resistances
+(151 to 180)% Enhanced Damage
5% Deadly Strike

I'm not saying it shouldn't have other options. Just that there is an option.

EDIT: Plus didn't it get a rework like...2 seasons ago?

Solving a bad mechanic or skill by getting an extremely rare and hard item to get is a bad way to solve bad mechanics. Like what Blizzard did with the sunder charms and the runeword to make martial arts sin has a chance of not consuming charges in D2R. It could be done by fixing those mechanics themselves.

Per my last Email

"I'm not saying it shouldn't have other options. Just that there is an option."

If I remember right though. The build is as strong as it is because of Sky Murder essentially turning it on. If they gave more options they would probably have to tune the damage down.

Yea, I saw this...
10% magic damage reduction, but 3 more fletchettes per nova, and larger radius...maybe a small buff if it will hit more.

I honestly like the "new" Maelstrom. It still sucks as it is, but it's miles better than it used to be.
