Herald of Purity Skill Reveal

That is good. That is REALLY good. That is stupidly there has to be a catch good.

That would help my Witch so much its not even funny. If it CAN be used as a meatwall (for at least a second) against map bosses without investing a massive amount in passives/gear, then it will probably be my favorite thing from the entire expansion.

Nice!

Looks like the next skill will be herald of chaos.

More summoning meta.. why? Can we get new stuff that is NOT summoner or channeled?

this was unexpected looks cool though nice job PoE team!

And so on.

In all of those cases you can pick up any skill and play with it, you are not locked in one skill. People choose those skills because they are much better than other skills, not because their ascendancy tells them.

I am not saying that new guardian ascendancy notables are only for herald of purity, we didn't see changes yet.

The whole "identity" thing with ascendancies dropped a huge dark brick on the tree dumbing down tree diversity and making huge chunks of it redundant. It changes with patch notes, but the essence stays the same. Yeah, you probably could make a poison chieftain, but chances are very high it would suck ass. Same thing with elementalist / Inquisitor in 3.2


I hope they hook the guardian up with something huge. They basically took the worst parts, clunky ass melee, and semi-clunky ass melee minions and slammed them together. gj

Would be great to release a ranged attack version of this. Herald of archery + mirage archer for your own little minion army.

gonna be rocking it with this herald, may not work for aoe explosions like herald of ice and fire but it does make for better summons and thus also some damage reduction by drawing the attention away from
yourself.

I wonder what other heralds could they come up with next? a herald of chaos?

anyways good job on such a wonderful concepts keep up the good work! :D

will there be a nerf for arc and BV?

Makes me wonder if the reworked ancestral warchief will be a sentinel of some sort.
