Why isnt it reliable?

Enemies killed directly can shatter - but this does not stop nearby enemies from igniting

Enemiest killed with burn die and leave proliferating corpses.

What is the reason you co sider hatred an issue?


It is an issue if you use AoE attack.

could you please be more specific? i use 30+ Cleave, and max AOE glacial hammer with splash.. and YET cannot fathom what you are talking about..

describe scenario that you have in mind or link to a description because what i see is 'i wont work, i cant say why, but it wont work, period'..

ive tried, got to 80+ with it and see absolutely NO ISSUE with it. hatred increases damage thus overkill and shattering on crit means nothing as this has no impact on ignites anyway..
You will ignite but not have corpse proliferate.
With 3 dragons corpse will proliferate the burn + the shock

The corpse doesn't Proliferate anyways because you put EP on Herald, not on your Attack.
Additionally, any Ignite on the initial target is going to be weaker than Ash's, so Proliferating that Ignite does nothing anyways.

Hatred does not hurt Herald of Ash builds to a significant degree, if at all.

You play melee. I play ranged.

Though i still use HoA because it's insanely good.

could you just please stop it?

either say what you mean or admit you were wrong? i see nothing in Herald of Ash' description that makes it work differently for melee/ranged

btw - my best HoA character is Lightning Striker..

Does Conec Effect work with this skill?

Does Fire Penetration linked to HoA do anything?

What about Iron Will?
It doesn't hit anything, and it isn't a spell, so I'd say no on all accounts.
Maybe Concentrated Effect will reduce the AOE, who knows.

Isn't a "no" better than an ignore?
Anyone got confirmation if the Heralds ar affected by inner force or not? After a quick google some said yes and some said no =/
