Crit / meteor build

[Concillian]

I played tonight with mirror images and electrocute.

Electrocute -- I used the crit = more lightning rune, whatever it's called. This does piddly damage to any single target. Spectral does TONS more damage. Butcher inferno feels like at 14k what it felt like at 11k with spectral blades. It does have mass room clearing ability. MASS. Like almost as good as meteor spam if there's lots of guys around (but much less critical mass procs from the 25% coefficient) I can see this being used for farming hell over using Disintigrate.

Mirror images -- Duplicates worked okay. I died twice playing through most of Act I inferno. Once I got pinned in and couldn't get out. I felt like partly it was my play. The other was fast / molten / teleport / something else. These mobbed me. I likely would have survived with 5k more health. I actually died about 3 steps from a health globe and potion about 10 secs from cooled down.

I also tried Mirror Images with the "they do 10% of your damage rune" (last rune, I forget what it's called). This was a shorter run, with going to the festering woods for some guaranteed packs in the places where you get the orbs to enter the drowned temple to up my stacks, usually there's 2 there, one or two in the open and an event for another meaning 3-5 stacks of NV really quick in the Festering Woods. Then went Agony 2 --> Butcher. No deaths.
I wanted to try this rune, not because of the damage, so much as I saw my duplicates casting frost nova all the time. I thought if they do 10% of my damage... would their frost nova freeze them? IT DOES. I virtually stun-locked a fast / molten / something / something champ pack, because you get like 3 frost novas every 3-4 seconds if you're puddles are working for you, which is facilitated by the extra freezing. This is a very interesting skill / rune combo for use in that extra slot. I didn't really notice the mirrors casting much else.
