Slower Projectiles Support

Slower Projectiles is a support gem. It reduces the speed and increases the damage of supported projectile skills.

Skill Functions and Interactions
Slower Projectiles won't affect how far arrow projectiles travel, since arrow projectiles have a fixed travel distance of 120 units. However, it will still affect the travel distance of projectiles from skills such as, which have a lifetime rather than a fixed travel distance.

Slower Projectiles can support, which causes the projectiles to deal more total hits/damage because enemies would be in the area of effect for longer before the projectile passes by them. At level 20, Slower Projectiles would result in approximately 9 Ball Lightning hits to an enemy instead of 6, other factors being equal.
