Ruthless Support is a support gem that causes every third attack made with the skill to deal substantially more damage and have increased base stun duration.
When supported by Multistrike SupportMultistrike SupportAttack, Melee, Support Icon: 3 Level: (1-20) Cost & Reservation Multiplier: 150%Requires Level 38Supports melee attack skills, making them repeat twice when used, targeting a random enemy each time. Cannot support Vaal skills, channelling skills or triggered skills.Supported Skills Repeat 2 additional times Supported Skills have (35-44)% more Melee Attack Speed Supported Skills deal (30-20)% less Attack Damage First Repeat of Supported Skills deals 22% more Damage Second Repeat of Supported Skills deals 44% more Damage
Additional Effects From 1-20% Quality: Supported Skills deal (0.5-10)% increased Melee DamageThis is a Support Gem. It does not grant a bonus to your character, but to skills in sockets connected to it. Place into an item socket connected to a socket containing the Skill Gem you wish to augment. Right click to remove from a socket., Ruthless Blows work differently, instead of occurring every third hit, it occurs every third Multistrike. This means hits from the first 2 uses (attacks 1 - 6) will be "normal blows" and all hits from the third Multistrike use (attacks 7-9) will be Ruthless Blows.
Using this idea, a Ruthless Blow may actually trigger by skill use, rather than skill attack. This means you will have to use the attack skill three times to benefit from a Ruthless Blow.
The Ruthless Blow counter still counts whether or not you hit with a skill. For example: if you miss the first 2 hits of your supported attack, then Ruthless Blow will activate on your next (3rd) attack whether it is a hit or not.
Tracking blows: Keeping track of Ruthless Blows allows for them to be ready to use before a fight begins.
Multiple attacks - can be supported by Ruthless Support. Each attack tracks their own Ruthless Blows separately. When tracking multiple attacks, multiple Ruthless Blows can be ready before a fight begins.
Channeled skills, including Cyclone can not be supported by Ruthless and will not interact with it in any way.
