Hail of Knives

Hail of Knives is a rune effect in Fan of Knives, a Hatred-spending Demon Hunter skill attack.

This rune effect doubles the radius of the attack, from 10 to 20 yards, and makes it vastly more useful in the process. Ten yards is hardly more than melee range. Twenty yards is a much larger radius of effect, though it's likely that not everything in the area will be struck, since the knives in this attack are not magical or piercing. They are physical, so if this is used when multiple monsters are in the same direction, the ones in front will take the hits while the ones behind them will remain untouched.
