Earthquake PoE Build

Earthquake is a melee attack dealing damage in an area and leaving a crack in the ground. After a duration, the crack releases an aftershock, dealing more damage in a larger area. Requires an axe, mace or staff. Before you go you should also know that Earthquake can also be used unarmed.

Smashes the ground with an Axe, Mace, Sceptre or Staff, dealing damage in an area and cracking the earth. The crack will erupt in a powerful aftershock after a short duration. Earthquakes created before the first one has erupted will not generate their own aftershocks.

Skill functions and interactions

• Duration: increases and reductions to duration increase or reduce time between impact and aftershock respectively. The following gems and items reduce skill’s duration:  Less Duration Support,  Swift Affliction Support, and  Warped Timepiece. Be aware that Warped Timepiece will apply globally and reduce duration to buffs and other effects such as Fortify.
• Dual Wielding: Using Earthquake while dual wielding will use both weapons for attacking.
• Aftershock: The aftershock is a specific part of the skill that hits and has a 70% more multiplier to hits and ailments. Ailments such as poison, bleed, and ignite will have more damage if applied by the shockwave. The shockwave will however not scale other DoTs like  Decay Support as it is not a ailment.
