When penance mark was introduced back to affliction league, a lot of ppl including me was excited. In theory boneshatter can get 4x or even 9x damge with this mark. We were only disappointed after league start and seeing the mobs from penance mark spawn miles away.

Ancestral commander gives 50% increased distance of additional strike, so this is an experimental build to see if the idea from affliction league works.

Scaling stun duration to get 400% increased aoe with ruthless strike.

It appears that when pulse aoe radius increases from 3.1 (only some general aoe and stun) to 3.4 (blood and sand in sand stances) to 3.5 (more aoe investment), there are noticeable damage increases.

Build works fine in T16 and can be a low investment league start build for melee, with good clear and decent bossing (4 voidstones). But I would not recommend this build for T17, it can't do many mods.

Slayer is better for this build than ancestral commander, given 50% inc aoe and all other things.

Edit: I need a good way to test the aoe overlap too.

Can't use poison it will kill mobs

Also for unknown reason life gain on hit does not work with southbound
