This is a video going over the updated patch notes for lightning strike and testing potential performance in 3.25. I am pretty confident my build from last league with a few tweaks will do around 20% more damage without having to worry about totems

It is still an active playstyle as you need to keep adrenaline and the smite buff up for tough encounters. It should still be a nice cheap way to clear the atlas

Rough POB with what I think are the right calculations to work out the new damage and taking into account determination and grace nerfs. This is average rare gear, cheap uniques and a 6 link. This POB does not take into account the vaal skill as this has a different added damage effectiveness but for burst damage you can add another 1.1 million onto the Full DPS

If you want to check this pob you need to go into options in POB and click opt-in to weekly beta builds and update POB and then import the POB. This will give you the new ascendancies and skill trees.
