i know alot of ppl swear by the elec/sd but im curious as to how good a SS/SD would be... my thought is fury+rage+against all odds combined with foot stomp+shield charge is anything left alive?

SS/ doesnt do well with SD. All that +dmg ends up getting wasted due to SCs very very low +dmg cap.

I would take SS over ELM.

Yes you are going to have some wasted damage on SC due to the pet damage cap.

If you go ELM you run into that same problem with LR also and have crap ST damage to boot. Once you slot for Damage, get a half full fury bar and hit Build Up you only get a buff on LR and SC from 4 baddies worth of AAO the rest is wasted.

At least with SS you can keep pumping up the damage on Footstomp and have decent ST damage to make dealing with Bosses much less annoying at least it has been for me ymmv

All that +damage means 300 point footstomps.

On a high rech build with the FF proc, you can be tossing out one of those 300 point footstomps every 5-7s or so. And the proc brings SC back up all that much faster.
