No skill rune properties are yet known for SSS. [[Crimson]] boosting the damage is a safe bet, as is [[Golden]] lowering the Spirit cost, but it's not known how the [[Indigo rune]] might work multishot into the skill effect, when the main benefit of more points is more hits. More hits per each target?
What special effects the [[Obsidian]] and [[Alabaster]] runes might provide is entirely unknown.

==Skill Design==
A very fun skill. Much like a finishing move in a fighter. [[Jay Wilson]] described it as "Human Chain LigtningLightning."
The Monk teleports to his target, Dragon Flight style, and commences to strike multiple times. As best I could tell, the Monk was invulnerable, or perhaps intangible, during this attack. He's not visible except as flashing series of human shapes, all shining gold and two-dimensional. You can see a screenshot in this article, or see it featured in the Blizzcon B-roll gameplay footage. The evolution of the skill was described in detail during the Monk design panel as well.
