Not sure how I feel about ascendancys leaning heavily towards specific skills. Result of Path of Tencent?

Yeah I really hope the Guardian nodes are more generic than they're letting on. I don't want to play "The new Smite Purity Guardian build", I want to play my own build that I came up with myself. Hopefully I have reasons to go Guardian besides these new skills, and hopefully I don't HAVE to go Guardian to use the new skills.

This looks interesting.

The Problem with all Minion skills is that the always lag behind. Whats the Point in minions if they just follow me while i kill things?

well.. big pile of 'interesting' right there:

- pure phys.. you know that pure phys doesnt work because conversion + penetration is 100% better? and if anything you should nerf that, not give it yet another power boost. percentage of users that WILL NOT convert it into elemental is as big as current KB vs Power Siphon usage

- tying physical damage with 'summon stupid minion on kill'.. you had 'summon phantasm' fiasco already. was the public reaction so overwhelm positive that you wanted to add another one?

if you do not know: 'summon stupid minion on kill' doesnt work, and people do not care because.. it is summoning a minion on a melee build or other non-summon character. i do not play Lacerate/Bleed to have bunch of idiots summoned everytime i kill something (it is not about passives etc - it is about simply not making sense)

- minions.. minions have terribad AI. you overcompensate that with minion speed - then they spread around like swarm. cool, problem solved. not. they are unreliable (unless you OVERTUNE THEM) and cannot be trusted for clearing. so you have to do entire clear anyway - so why bother?

- numbers. there are 3 scenarios:
- - initial numbers are SO F STUPID that players can see minions clearing stuff without any investment AKA yet another fiasco
- - initial numbers are similar to current summons damage on a non summoner build (aka barely at all) when noone cares
- - initial numbers are OK because you butchered entire tree to make this one skill work

pick one. every one is a dissaster


- and your Guardian changes.. it seems you no longer understand your own game.

awesome. i may think about investing in some mana reservation nodes to be able to run this alongside hatred and herald of fire.

Ohh Phys Dmg Herald, Finally. Is there going to be one like Hatred and Anger/Wrath ?? <3 Keep the good work going GGG :D

The physical equivalent of 'Wrath', 'Anger' and 'Hatred' should be named 'Prejudice'!

Please add in the next big update. Thank you. ;D

On-kill effects such as this lose some usefulness against tough bosses, so you also have a chance to summon or refresh a Sentinel of Purity whenever you hit a Unique enemy.

I hope every on-kill effect get the same treatment...at least in some way like keystones and unique items.

Like "on kill effects are transferred into on hit effects on Rare and Unique monsters at 20% of their value"

alright, so what-s herald of chaos gimmick?

Summon Atziri's and Omnitect's transhuman baby with horns on kill.
