Best Rune to proc Thul

CL Sorc with high Lucky hit.

What do you guys think would proc Thul most often?
Igni
Ahu
Poc/Tam - aren’t these essentially the same thing? Assuming 100 mana, wouldn’t Poc always outperform Tam? Considering it’s saying almost the same thing in two ways - 5% of resource would give the same 25 offering per non channeled skill cast right with a slight edge to Poc unless your using multiple core skills??

Head to the training dummy, turn on a timer, and test. You’ll get an answer soon enough.

Nice idea. I’ve not been a big fan of runewords but you have me intrigued. I always have a conjuration active so I think I will try nagu / thul in the morning.

Igni is time base and you probably can acculate energy faster with other rune.

Ahu I think is you best bet, you have have a multi-hit Skill with high Lucky Hit Chance. Once the enemy gets non-healthy you will trigger Ahu a lot.

Poc is really good with Skills that have high cost, like Ball Lighting (50 mana). And you can’t have Resource Reduction, so no Starless.
For Chain Lighting is not good, better use Tam.
Poc combos really well with Qax.

Tam is good for very high attack speed. I don’t know much about CL build, but I imagine that Ahu will out perform Tam.

Edit 1: For Bosses (single target), Tam might work better since half your “hits” are on you.

Edit 2: Forgot about Cir, Cir will out perform Igni and Tam on most cases. I guess Cir is your second best option.

Same thing for Nagu. Cir will trigger Thul every 3 seconds while Nagu will be every 5 seconds. But with Nagu the explosion area will gigantic.

Is there any drawback to the become exhausted mechanic? With me popping familiar, ice blades, UC, and ice armor maybe that’s a winner over ahu

No, its just not going to gen any offering during those seconds. Once the time is up, all skiils will start stacking up to 5 again.

Nah, is just a cooldown that they can’t call a cooldown…

What CL variant are you running that has familiar on the bar?

I’m running blades, nova, UC, CL, ice armor, flame shield

Poc/Ohm and Ahu/Qax. Don’t really see a need for Thul… mine’s on a 11 sec CD.

Icy veins. With Thul I can proc nova more often than if it was on my skill bar. Plus I can Conjure an electric familiar at all times for the damage bonus at the same time

I prefer neo for pits and poc for speedfarming. Neo generates 400 instead of 300 offering which produces a frost nova with bigger radius without doing anything in pits.
