Now that frenetic throw has lost its conversion, the NB conduit that adds 8 aether projectiles to Phantasmal Blades looks very neat for building potential. Is there an established trick/movement skill/prayer to getting within proper shotgun range so that your whole 13-shot spread hits the same hitbox consistently? Sample build for reference.
1st of all: You are aware, that that conduit spreads PB in a 360° circle? (Cause I wasn’t before I saw it, either - since skill description does not tell).
So - no, I guess? You would need to stand inside the enemy.
i think someone discovered the nova originated in such a way that if you were left shoulder facing the enemy it would largely shotgun it?
I remember there being some talks about it after it got added, “being potentially exploitative”, but iirc tricky to pull off consistently in a manner to deliberately apply it constantly to ex Cruci runs, so it shouldn’t be worried about in terms of nerfing the conduit(back then)
I think @nofika4u had the really strong aether PB back then, unsure if he can/wants to elaborate on the shotgun/nova? (if not sry for the tag 
)

Not much to elaborate, I try to use the movement rune to enter the mobs hitbox or use force move to get close enough that all projectiles hits. Makes that aether pb reaper a bit taxing to play though
Playing around the perfect mouse cursor position so that the projectiles are fired in a cone instead was not very reliable

i don’t get it, what’s going on there/why is it only casting 1?
Targeting adjacent to the player.
Just like lobbed projectiles (grenado, etc.) getting yeeted (yote?) across the world if you aim right next to yourself.

kinda seems weird it would still change a nova into single/1direction tho but suppose direction doesn’t matter just whether or not it’s a projectile/getting tossed
