" Umbraal wrote: Consider this: If you add culling strike as a support they'll get culling strike. If you have gear that gives culling strike to stuff socketed in it they'd get it. If you have gear that gives all your spells socketed anywhere culling strike they might. Of course it really depends. Does it make your spell damage having culling strike or your spells? The second, but neither of those cases apply to minions. Spells you cast have culling strike. This is not restricted to only spell damage, so will apply to, for example, Detonate Dead, which is a spell, but deals non-spell damage. Summon Skeletons is a spell. It does no damage. The skeletons themselves are not a spell, and are not using a spell. They are using the default attack skill, and don't have your gear. Raised Spectres can cast spells, but those aren't spells you cast, and the spectres don't have your gear.	Posted by Mark_GGG on Mar 11, 2013, 4:20:06 AM Grinding Gear Games Quote this Post

Wow, I really like the idea behind the Heartbreaker dagger. The name, the description. Very... fitting :) Is it one of the Diamond Uniques and if so to whom do we owe the pleasure? ;) IGN: Avlee Last edited by avlee#5968 on Mar 11, 2013, 9:29:27 AM	Posted by avlee#5968 on Mar 11, 2013, 9:28:18 AM Quote this Post

If you'll read a few pages back, you'll see that Charan said Metronomy's responsible for this one	Posted by Crossflip#2982 on Mar 11, 2013, 10:04:48 AM Quote this Post
The heartbreaker sounds like a neat idea, but I just feel like Divinarius just completely outclasses it... Feels like it'd have been better with some other unique perk attached. i too fas fo youuuuuuu	Posted by Duskbane#4733 on Mar 11, 2013, 1:40:53 PM Quote this Post

Very unlikely that your Minions will get Culling Strike with the Heartbreaker :) (insert joke about breaking your heart here) I would say that it depends on whether or not your skeletons do spell damage. From what I know, summon skeletons is a spell, but it deals no spell damage, the skeletons you summon do weapon damage (which is why they are affected by auras like wrath, while spells are not). However if you raised a spectre that used a spell (like the caster skeletons) I would consider that spell damage. if u add increased rarity to dominating blow, the attack and as well the minions themself benefit from that. culling strike is added to all spells. raising zombies and spectres, as well as summoning skeletons are spells, what means there is a chance of them having culling strike with the heartbreaker dagger imho. would be nice if someone could try it out, or convince me that minion bonuses are managed in a completely different way, if my army gets culling strike with this dagger it would make it an interesting weapon for my summoner :) IGN: BinGeil, CornyMarauder i speak english, ich spreche deutsch, hablo espanol Last edited by DerCorny#0458 on Mar 11, 2013, 3:46:02 PM	Posted by DerCorny#0458 on Mar 11, 2013, 3:45:08 PM Quote this Post

Feels like it'd have been better with some other unique perk attached. you shouldnt forget that culling strike makes enemies have 10% less life, kind of it also has energy shield, + cd of it, only one other sword gives es (bonus) and its lv50, divinarius 66 :p IGN: BinGeil, CornyMarauder i speak english, ich spreche deutsch, hablo espanol Last edited by DerCorny#0458 on Mar 11, 2013, 3:54:22 PM	Posted by DerCorny#0458 on Mar 11, 2013, 3:49:57 PM Quote this Post

It does not include your dagger. Last edited by Vipermagi#0984 on Mar 11, 2013, 3:55:11 PM	Posted by Vipermagi#0984 on Mar 11, 2013, 3:54:34 PM Valued Poster Quote this Post
