Cast while Staticky: new spell trigger tech in Settlers league for “almost - autobombers”

Static Strike beams count as weapon damage and can be used to proc the runecrafting enchant "trigger a socketed fire spell on hit." This enables the automatic triggering of ~4 spells per second by hitting a single enemy and then running through packs. By scaling skill effect duration, you can extend the length of the Static Energy buff for a "semi-autobomber" playstyle.

In this video I explain the trigger tech, test most of the triggerable fire spells and compare their use cases.

Current test character is a rage/warcry chieftain converting rage to spell damage with Ravenous Passion. Character: SurGen_CastWhenStaticky PoB: https://pobb.in/b0gDzipkFZNQ (work in progress, consider this a template) Budget: not small, put your crafting pants on
