Is this a skill worth taking? I mean those bonuses (triple damage on ground and double near) really stack up? The genie attacks are usually weak but this skills sounds quite good on ground.

    Ugh, it heard it's decent...

    But it does have a huge requirement for affinity. Best to buy a junk genie with like 8 Free Affinity and test it out before randomly putting 8 Affinity on Metal on your good genie

    Yes, get it. Nao. It is very good, mine is lvl 9 out of 10 and it can take out huge chunks of life in PK. I critted a lvl 50ish BM last night about 5500 with it b:chuckle Was a one shot, kinda sucked because I didn't get a chance to fight myself.

    impressive...
    this might be another solution in the archer vs barb dilemma.

    The answer is no. Because ur tempest won't even be casted VS a barb. Pretty much no way to take out a barb 1v1 pk myself(sorry if im uselessb:surrender)
    Barb could stun and seal too. And you wouldn't do enough damage alone before his charm ticks.

    And you can not take me out without using a genie.b:victory I'll use immune to damage pot and log offb:chuckle. Just kidding.

    I heard blade of supreme heat lowers resistance to metal.


    If so I'm trying to imagine this combo.

    Thundershock/Blade of Supreme heat/Lightning shock/Thunderstorm.
    The only way to win is to quit. b:bye

    yes Bm vs BM a level 10 thunderstorm with dragons could definitly be a one shot, and if they just ticked and u did that, they will be gone soon anyway.. and to the ones using it on arcane users,, lol use physical attacks instead! xD

    79 crit skill > hell spark > anti stun pot > rofl at getting autoattacked to death

    imo waaay more satisfying
