@Yukionna
keep leveling (especially the gems) you are getting there, no worries

@Richardyi
1) nothing applies to your minions unless, it clearly tells you in it's description, we discussed this many times in the past, your minions are your minions, not your character
yes vuln is a debuff

2) havent tested, by the time you are ready with passives to run a 4th aura they should be high enough

3)
yes

4)
no

5)
based on their total life

6)
nothing, prolif supposedly increases their range of the aoe, haven't tried myself

7)
i don't have minion instability, cast on damage taken is a lousy gem in my opinion, especially in this build

8)
pvp is in such an early stage at the moment, haven't really put any though in it

thx for the fast reply~
i can see now the burning damage is same with prenerf degen bear...
thats mean it will get nerf eventually? i was actually hoping its flat damage tho...such an insane damage.

The burn damage from BMs is only really "insane" when you run solo or when you're with a mate. The damage is actually flat and wont scale outside of the gems you have linked + curses + EE. This means that your damage in 66 maps wont have changed by the time you're in a 72+ map, unlike any other build with better gear.

i must be misunderstood...
so it is flat damage then!
do u have any idea how much is the flat dmg roughly?

It's flat in the sense that the damage will not scale. The damage you see now is the damage you will see at the end maps. The burning damage is scaled off the creature's health which wont change since you will revive the same mob (unless you find it in maps) now and in 20 levels. The only way to buff this damage is through Flamability, Elemental Weakness and Vulnerability plus Elemental Equilibrium.

If you take a dual striker as an example, the damage will scale off gems, curses, but also when you receive a better weapon, unlike us. This means their damage will significantly increase as they level up and acquire better gear.

i know ...but the damage is insane as it look...i think it will deal quite a bit damage even in party...
i just concern about the base damage as it may...which can be scale by increase burning gem or maybe concfect?

Would running Discipline be a potential idea? Righteous Fire scales off of energy shield right? It might be a way to give a little more protection/damage for the BM's

Yeah increased burning damage will increase their damage. Minion Life will increase their damage (as damage is % of their health). Increased area of effect will increase the size, so they will hit more mobs = more damage. Nothing else works, beside enhance/empower gem.

I have no any problems with StormHerald .



Yes, my zombie a little weak without +2 gem but Im still alive!
Farming Piety and 66 maps well
