The Demon Hunter fires an arrow that hits the ground (in its basic version), and grenades erupt from the consequent blast, which in turn explode to damage enemies.
<br><br>__TOC__
==Background==
The skill generates a number of [[Grenade|grenades]] upon impact. The explosions damage other enemies in the immediate vicinity.
==Skill Rune Effects==
The following is a very quick summary. See the [[Cluster Arrow rune effects]] page for a more thorough description of rune effects, or any of the individual rune pages for numbers, screenshots, blue quotes, and much more.

<skill class="DemonHunter" rune="Dazzling Arrow">Cluster Arrow</skill>
<skill class="DemonHunter" rune="Shooting Stars">Cluster Arrow</skill>
<skill class="DemonHunter" rune="Maelstrom">Cluster Arrow</skill>
<skill class="DemonHunter" rune="Cluster Bombs">Cluster Arrow</skill>
<skill class="DemonHunter" rune="Loaded for Bear">Cluster Arrow</skill>
===Notes===
* The [[Demon Hunter]] must have a [[bows|bow]], [[crossbows|crossbow]], or [[Hand Crossbows|hand xbow]] equipped to use Cluster Arrow.
==Skill Design==
Cluster Arrow appears to have a direct damage component before generating the grenades that explode and damage the enemies within its radius with fire damage.
Three sharp red lines appear behind the demon hunter and travel forward, the blast hitting the ground with a fairly large explosion, leaving a decal on the ground, where the grenades pop out of. The grenades, much like the [[Grenade]] skill itself, will bounce around for a short while before detonating.
