Name	Show Full Descriptions
Controlled Destruction Support	Grants more spell damage to Ethereal Knives but reduces critical strike chance. The more spell damage provided by this support allows a direct and stable increase in damage not contingent on critical strikes.
Faster Casting Support	Increases the cast speed of Ethereal Knives, allowing it to be used more frequently.
Faster Projectiles Support	Increasing the projectile speed of Ethereal Knives increases how far the projectiles can travel. When paired with the Pierce support, Faster Projectiles will allow your projectiles to travel deeply through packs of mobs.
Physical to Lightning Support	Converts 50% of Ethereal Knives' physical damage to lightning damage, as well as providing extra lightning damage based on your physical damage.
Pierce Support	Allows projectiles from Ethereal Knives to travel through extra numbers of enemies, ensuring that more enemies in a pack will be hit by the projectiles.
Spell Echo Support	Repeats Ethereal Knives an additional time while also greatly increasing the cast speed.
