Announcements - Video of some new 0.11.6 Trap Gems - Forum

" Alfabetica wrote: Molten Shell, Detonate Dead, Discharge, Fire Trap, Fireball, Firestorm, Flame Totem, Incinerate, Searing Bond, Righteous Fire. Fire Trap, Molten Shell (esp %) and Discharge are all AoE burst fire, so they're useful. Searing Bond and Righteous Fire have implicit burning. Fireball Ele Prolif is a build that pops up every once in a while. Ignite on Detonate Dead makes 1-shotting mobs easier when you only need to have +~130% damage and the ignite (assuming 0 resist) to make it work (you can get 40% from 2 scepters and 41% from the templar passive tree start, without any extra sceptre mods or nodes or increased burning damage or criting). Flame Totem, Incinerate and Firestorm are the only ones Ignite isn't strictly useful on (not really usable at all on Incinerate). Right, ignite status is useful on Molten, Fireball and Fire trap, forgot about Detonate and Discharge is well, not strictly fire but fine. Useless on Flame Totem, Incinerate and Firestorm The rest don't do direct damage so they can't ignite at all. Burning damage is a damage type, ignite is a status effect that does burning damage. Still, the point is we got three elemental spells in fire category that do jack shit with their proprietary status effect while all lightning and fire spells can potentially cause meaningful status effect of their own. Perhaps that's in response to fire having a special support only for causing the elemental effect but some say it has something to do with fire being STR oriented and chance to ignite serves to compensate for lack of crits due to Resolute. Wish the armchair developers would go back to developing armchairs. ◄[www.moddb.com/mods/balancedux]► ◄[www.moddb.com/mods/one-vision1]►	Posted by raics#7540 on Sep 17, 2013, 3:49:20 PM Quote this Post

This looks really good but I think that you need to change the way the multiple traps gem works to make pure trap builds viable. Instead of placing the traps in a straight line it should place them in the form of a small triangle so you can hit as many targets as possible in a group of monsters.

If we had Ice or Lightning spells with the same mechanics as Incinerate, Flame totem or Firestorm their respective status ailments would be even less useful - you'd have difficulty meeting the damage thresholds to see any effect from them. It's just a result of the spells themselves more than a fire-specific thing.	Posted by Alfabetica#0571 on Sep 17, 2013, 6:32:21 PM Quote this Post

The ones that don't deal direct damage at all also have a support gem: increased burning damage. fire has 3 supports for its skills, lightning has 1, cold has 1, right?
