He was probably referring to the official Arc changes in patch notes, which were out hours ago.

Does "Now deals 15% more damage for each remaining chain." mean: at lvl20 gem (7 chains), if Arc hits a single target (boss), it will deal (6x15%) more damage on that target?

7x15%*
So around 105% :D 150% with enchant. Or 135% with the enchant nerf. Really good buff!

@Nostrademous: ... the mobility boost from two boosted Lightning Golems is too good to pass on, Pendulums unreliable damage buff is no comparision to that.

According to the wiki: "When the player has multiple of the same Golems, their buffs don't stack."

While taking Liege of the Primordial a 2nd golem will still give you another 20% increased damage and 50% increased effect (rather than 25% with 1 golem), but having 2 lightning golems serves no purpose. Instead you might want another flame golem for 30% increased damage, or a stone golem for some regen. Though to be fair that does cost you another gem slot...

@rAx: Not gonna lie, this made me laugh. Thanks man!

@t1ngi: Very true. I'm using 2x Lightning Golems to maximize attack- & cast speed, the damage difference compared to Flame Golem is negligible. Stone/Chaos Golem would be some options for a safer setup. This is reflected in the now-finished gem setup.
