will any of these new gems work with cyclone?

Hi, Patch delay makes perfect sense....

"Intelligence Support Gem - Power Charge on Critical: Critical strikes with the supported skill have a chance of granting you a Power Charge."

As a cold crit witch.... I have a moral responsibility to state that
this could potentially be ludicrously overpowered. I crit more than 30%
of all strikes and therefore would have 3 charges within 10 total strikes
and would never lose any charges due to how rapidly I attack as well as
LMP causing any crit to strike numerous targets.

now this is unbalanceable, because if you balance for my build, you will
render this gem useless in almost all other circumstances.

best of luck, hope you find a way. was wise to delay until testing was done.

However, probably will not be overpowered for fire or lightening spells.

I think this says more about the state of cold spell's dominance rather than the Powercharge Gem's potential.

Yea I admit this for sure, but as for the total dominance of ice? I don't
personally know this for sure, I've never run fire/lit went straight to
cold... potentially ice could be nerfed though it is possible to balance
the power charge gem by tweaking its reaction to crit% it could lower
crit chance by x% where x is actually pretty large... like 50% before
it applies its power charge... for those with 10% crit chance no biggie,
they drop to 5%.... for those of us with 32%... we plummet to 16% which would
seriously even the playing field. this is just hashing ideas, I dont know
what specific numbers should be set to.

"Have a chance"
If it was 100% chance that crit = charge wouldn't it be worded "Critical strikes with the supported skill grant you a Power Charge"?

Admittedly, it still sounds like gaining and maintaining charges on some of the higher critbase spells will be too easy to do.

Gem - Melee Splash: Adds an area of effect splash radius to a single target melee attack.


Seeing the excellent work you did with cyclone / arctic armor, I predict this support will be something like, Mana cost multiplier 670%, damage done 2%. Keep those high mana cost/ineffective gems coming!
