Shock pulse really needs the runes, otherwise no way am I going to use it. In fact, Electrocute is so much better than that despite the lower damage... But Fire Bolts might prove to be useful if it shoots 3 linearly-moving fire bolts...
The thing between Arcane Torrent and Arcane Orb is that... at least Arcane Orb hits something while it's travelling there, and most likely I will use it for dealing with mobs coming after me or for hitting a pack of mobs that have not spotted me yet - the AoE is large enough to compensate. Whereas Arcane Torrent, I'd prob use it for a big boss or bosses that don't really move much e.g. because someone's tanking it or I'm tanking it, because if I use it on a pack of fast-moving champions, by the time the projectiles arrive at their original spot they're already on top of me. But yes Arcane Torrent's DPS is pretty decent, and I do intend to keep it on one of my buttons for now.
If a skill says it does X% over Y seconds, does it mean that the damage is spread out i.e. X/Y% per second? I'd also like to know how crappy/good Energy Twister is...
