A question, would a life leech gem work with HoI? Leeching from the ice explosion that is.

Can confirm with 100% certainty that it does, and I'm using it.

Herald of ice + curse on hit + Assassin's mark + life will auto cast the curse on nova hit as well as leech life?

Level 63 Ranger using Split Arrow, Ice Shot, Fire Trap, Ranged Attack Totem with Caustic Arrow, Decoy Totem, Flame Golem. Traded in Zombies for Herald of Ice just now.

The skill description for Herald of Ice clearly states 25% reserved mana. After equipping this brand new LEVEL 1 gem, it reserves not 25% mana, but 30%.

I was on the fences with 25%, I can't go 30%. Thanks for the misinformation, and thanks for making me waste a few chromatics so that I could even equip this gem.

Hi,

I was trying a setup with [herald of ice + curse on hit + warlords mark], and when I kill some mobs with cyclone coc discharge I don´t leech life.
If I change to [blasphemy + warlords mark] to check it is leeching correctly, but change to [herald of ice + curse on hit + warlords mark] I kill the mobs and don´t leech.

Does added flat damage from gear affect to explosion? (When it don't said "...with attack\spell\weapons\etc")

Is there a list somewhere of what adds flat damage to HoI explosions?

so far without supporting it I've got Impresence, Sacrifical Heart, Innervate on a different skill, Zephi's Heart, Nebuloch, Saqawal's Winds, Despair, Tasalio's Sign, Nycta's Lantern, Stormfire, Esh's Mirror, Apep's Slumber, Fenumus' Weave, The Embalmer, Apep's Supremacy, Malachai's Vision.

If you're supporting it, you then get Ice Bite, Added Cold Damage, Added Lightning Damage, Innervate again, Added Chaos, and Immolate.

Anything I missed?

Herald of Ice should also get the same effect of Purity and Agony where they also get a chance to proc an effect with On-Hit. The Ice Explosions could be limited with a cooldown to prevent it from being too strong as well.

Herald of ice MTX cant be applied to the skill when the skill is provided by a ring. This should really be fixed. There's no reason to buy skill MTX when you cant use it.
