Skill Preview: Dark Pact
"you are correct, but the problem is moreso the dumb clear speed rush than skills with interesting mechanics (and you can see that the former impedes the latter. kinda like why do we need stun or any cc in the game if we can just kill the mobs outright, right ?) this skill has the most interesting mechanics out of any of the new skills so far. unlike other skills that simply are existing mechanics combined in some ways and giving you more ways to scale damage, this skill actually is different mechanically. and yes, most likely people will just use synergy with life on map clearing if theres a very good one, if the clear speed meta persists (dont see why it would be going anywhere, still profitable to run linear maps one-shooting trash with biscos, then just buy whatever you need with currency) | |

someone datamined this on reddit, might be the right spell.
http://cb.poedb.tw/us/gem.php?n=Skeletal+Chains keep in mind, this must NOT be dark pact, could also be some waste from who knows where. But if this is the right spell, than we can assume that it would cost you % based life and deals that with the base damage of the skill, as area damage. Someone also mentioned that area and damage will be multiplied if you use your own life. i repeat, this is just a datamined skill that COULD be the basetype of dark pact, nobody knows wether this is dark pact. |

" From how I understand it does not chain to skeletons that are too far away from you. "Into the Labyrinth!
left step, right step, step step, left left. Into the Labyrinth!" | |

Hype !!

" Since you sacrifice life when you use this skill it's not a bad idea to have an ES-buffer protecting you. The right man at the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

" Im gonna go on a limb here and say it wont work with CI. If it takes life from you when u cast it will not cast since you will have 1 hp. That being said, for CI it will most likely involve cast when channeling with skellies or a totem. Thats if it will work at all with CI, might go unusable like if you equip the wrong weapon, like with lacerate for example, where if you equip the wrong weapon the skill icon greys out and you cant use it.
