Now that I think about it, Desecrate ground is probably to get us to move away from snapshotting (beyond weapon switching) and effectively removes the only role that skeletons had, which is meat shields. You'll now be able to re-summon zombies easily during boss fights, however, Spectres will be an issue. I wonder what those corpses will spectre into if their even selectable.

Raging Spirit is gonna be hard pressed to earn our cast time. Right now we have to throw out 1~3 curses + a spell to provide debuffs. Outside of boss fights, I see very little room for him, especially since he will need a set of support gems unlike skeletons who weren't expected to dish out any meaningful damage.

Pretty sure the trap bonus from sunblast doesn't apply. At least there is no visible difference when timing kills with the Bm.

They can't expect us to move away from snapshotting before letting people make different summoner specs, no snapshotting will mean weak minions, so unless they make it possible to use just one type of minion effectively or give a very big buff to minions generally, I don't see it happening.

Well, we could still use spectre with snapshot, and make zombies into full on tanks without snapshot and just resummon them.

EDIT
Will it be possible to resummon zombies on swap if I get another 20/20 zombie gem? I could just wear

on swap with zombie setup and anther zobie gem in main weapon. Desecrate and resummon.


P.S. As for desecrate, will try it out on my 1k str doon caster in conjuction with detonate dead, should be fun.

There's your problem - the sockets don't match.
In the first armour, that socket is in the first group, in the others, it's in the second group. If you want the skill to be detected as the same, it has to be in the same socket group.
Note that this may not always work in future - this isn't a mechanic, it's simply a consequence of how skills are identified. Should that change, you can't rely on swapping this stuff around and still counting as the same skill long term."
