Skill Rework - Storm Burst

"

Elemental passives near the Templar that now benefit spells that convert Physical to Fire or Lightning damage.

Oh god, YES. ^^

Really effed yourselves into a corner with that conversion mechanic eh? Let's just make everything phys to ele and no one will be unique. YAY!

So... basically...

You combined Storm Brand's chaining, and Storm Burst's after effect into one...


...What?

This will put Storm Brand into the grave, you know that?

I thought today was the news of the new league and supporter packs?

Sadly GGG have started announcing their announcements in US time, not NZ time, so it's actually tomorrow.

Yea, 'have started' in 2011.

Alongside the new league, a huge number of spells are being rebalanced.

Let me guess ... arc, blade vorte nerfed to death?

:)

The old Storm Burst was pretty hard to level up damage. If you even try to get cast on channeling even worst on a 7 link. Now I'm not sure the spell will be use with something else. If he can do more damage then smite, maybe but not sure.

Hmmm will it work on totems? will it release on full stacks?

For some reason I can't view the video... Is anyone having similar issue?

As traps/mines (probably totems, too), yes, Arc is being demolished. Selfcast, no.

Looks very promising. I like the fact that even a shorter length channel, grants some burst damage for faster clearing. Scaling the damage with a longer channel for boss fights, adds a good element(no pun intended), and will be strategy inducing.
