    Is Aftershocks worth picking up?

    Hey there,

    I have read lately that Aftershocks is... bugged maybe? Doing no damage at all or very little damage, cannot proc Flame Patch, etc..
    Anyone around that picked it and knows if its working properly or not? and if it is.. does it change Flamestrike at all? Does it make flamestrike worth using with less targets or something?

    Thanks

    They say second flamestrike does 25% of normal flamestrike dmg, if that's true i'm going to pick reignition overdrive and blast furnace once i have filled burning gaze...

    "Flamestrike calls down 1 additional pillar of fire each time it is cast."

    Can't answer those questions but I'd just like to point out that the wording used in the tooltip can be interpreted in two ways. Most people (including myself initially ) assumes it means you get double flamestrike. But that's not necessarily the case given the wording. Tl;dr: might be intended that it doesn't proc flamepatch.

    There is no use arguing over the wording. We KNOW how it works, from testing. The wording is misleading, as it's not "a second Flamestrike" but an effect similar to Flamestrike, but with different interactions and a different name. Currently the damage it deals is pitiful, and this might just be the single worst trait to pick.

    It is absolutely not worth taking. The damage is pitiful, not even half the damage of Flamestrike, doesn't proc Flame Patch, I'm not sure on its interaction with ignite (does it get the double ignite damage from Hot streak for example), and just in general is something to avoid. Unless you're fighting a big pack of ~9 mobs you shouldn't be using Flamestrike regardless.
