Did anyone tried it after the patch? The patch notes seem to say that single target damage might have been buffed, depending on changes to PS/Vortex, while AoE is lowered.
Overall a nerf. While base line PS deals more weapon damage, the decrease due to Thunderous strike (the no cd modifier) being nerfed is bigger. Also lower base damage on vortex of souls. I haven’t tried yet but on paper it’s clearly a nerf.
Widow did get a buff with %OA addition though. I doubt this compensates for the nerfs but it’s something.
I am actually running this as a first character and I have to say I am having a blast with it so far. I still need to find a Vortex of Souls and more of the ultos set but even without it the build is great.
this gun works with castable skills?
If I understand correctly, Falcon Swoop was nerfed after this build. Is it still the best thing to use attached to Primal Strike?
Personally, I don’t think so. Manticore/Widow resist reduction outstrips it. When I tried Falcon Swoop this patch, full shotgun procs weren’t even noticeable in the natural damage variance of this build’s attacks.
I traded myself a Vortex of Souls ingame and it does not have PIERCE modifier on it. Since I can’t equip it yet I can’t test it out either.
According to gracefuldusk it still has it but another site has it without pierce modifier - which is it then?
It still has the pierce effect, for w/e reason it was removed from the tooltip
Any changes/improvements to this build since it was written?
Also, any tips on devotions and the order in which to take them in?
I’m theorycrafting a blade burst build with this setup, as there are a bunch of cold+aether items out there. Any thoughts on that?
And does anyone have a spare gun? 
EDIT: nvm got one, I’ll let you know how it’s doing

Is Primal Strike an “attack” or “spell”?
Should I increase my attack speed or casting speed for this?
attack speed
“Neck: Ulto’s gem arcane spark + Kymon’s reduce enemy dmg augment <- very important, since our spam is >100% weapon dmg, this enchant effectively a free warcry with no cooldown or casting animation.”
What exactly is this augment? or has it been nerfed? can’t find it
Kymon’s Will augment. It’s available in the Kymon’s faction vendor at Revered rank.
would this still be viable at this patch?
Maybe with some modifications cause Falcon swoop has been nerfed… I’m trying this build now, the Rifle’s are still solid, but I’m figuring out what class and devotions would fit best with shaman primal strike modification… maybe in 5 days I can come back here to post my thoughts
Besides conjurer, Elementalist due to Huge Thermite lighting debuff and other CC good stuff like Searing light and Blast shield. Jajaja also made an elementalist for this very reason but it was melee and with savagery. You can adapt it to ranged easily.
Looks good on paper, but thermite mine is something I don’t wanna come close until they change something about the casting or anything… takes too long to arm, area of effect is too small, mana cost too high… I don’t know, I hate this skill hehe
I don;t like it either much but if you the the hang of it it’s great. Jajaja’s elementalist kills so quickly you don’t need to cast them twice in a boss fight.
If you want more comfort just make a Warder:p it’s fail safe
what do u think about it as druid …
