Synthesis Gem Information

So. I know the question is rhetorical, but is there a particular reason for ES leech gem to get a "more" damage while leeching multiplier, while Life leech gem gets an "increased" damage while leeching one?

It feels like a massive oversight, but in reality - it actually isn't one, is it?

Other than that, excited to play Path of Spells.

Holy Flame Totem with Cast While Channeling? Anyone???

Nothing on Energy Leech Support specifies Spells. You're free to use it for the damage multiplier and leech on Attack builds.

I dont see a nerf in hotw Jugg ms this league too, so prob would be my end-game boss slaughtering build later lolz..

I can't imagine how borken it'd be to have a proper es leech jugg this time around, especially with es leech gem being this op.

ok bane seems stronger than anything ?
why would u even use essence drain now ?

you would have to cast bane (for cuses)
than contaigon (so spread)
than essence drain to deal damage and spread.

and this would probably do the same of even less damage than just bane with 3-4curses and aoe/damage links ?

and soul rend seems nice but its only a litte more damage than essence drain but only up 0.4 sec (essence drain has like 3-4sec)

so even with some spell duration u would have to cast it at least once or twince a scnd to even do the 2000 damage per sec ?
witch is only 500 more than with ed that u can cast once ever 5-8sec with some duration and freely move arround ?

maybe they want us to just stand still and cast soulrend without gmp for a boss ? with like :
bane
energy shield leech
spell echo
unlseash (if cast speed exeeds the 0.71 sec / charge)
intesify
controlled destr.

idk if this would make sense but with the 4%leech already in thats probably only working with the on hit damage not with the dot you could maybe ? tank/leech alot of es per sec.

Onslaught Gem missing.

Life leech gem is such a joke compared to ES one, come on, nobody used it in the first place, and now its even worse. Need similar more multiplier or better leech or both

Bane deals 1060.6 chaos damage per second... WUT !
Honeslty I was not excpecting that much, I thought it would be something like Contagion, more a support than anything. But with those numbers I can 6L it and easily use it as a main clear skill, just switching for Sourlend or ED when boss fighting I guess.

Bane + double curses in it + Profane Bloom (+ random supports) = chaotic Erection

About Malevolence, I agree 50% mana reservation is a huge counterpart for 20% more DoT damage, but let see if it's still manageable since we can remove Blasphemy...
