The Hillock change is great, we need more things like that to spice up Cruel and Merciless.

the only change to this will be:

Pls help kill hillock, spammed on the msg board.
in between the "piety kill, tp up" and "general need help" crap

I like this patch! Desecrate skill making life for summoners easier and bringing so much synergies with other skills. Can't wait to test it out! Offering skills also looks very cool.
I am not exactly big fan of Summon raging spirit skill, but It's nice to hear It can be used for offense and also defense purposes.

gj guys!

Then you are an horrible selfish person

right, let's feed all the world's hungry so we can find a new equilibrium at which humans breed themselves into starvation. who wouldn't want to see that.

been waiting for artic skull since it was first announced, gidiyup.

Hillock buffed aww yeah!

Not gona lie, as a summoner, I would NEVER use this staff. My minions are squishy enough as it is, them taking 18%ish more damage? No thanks.

Not to mention, the increased curse effect is worthless. You don't care about regular mobs as a summoner, bosses are your main issue. What do bosses have? They have HUGE curse resistance! This would net you what, +2% effect of your curses on bosses? At the cost of both your weapon and shield slot?? Not going to happen.

The only GOOD thing this staff has for it, and I mean really good thing, is the sexy aura art for it. I kinda like it.

Actually, the only thing I could think of, is do the raging spirits count as allies since they cant be targeted? If they do, then if your focused on them and mediocre summons like skellies and animate weapon then maybe you don't particularly care about how long your allies live. Mainstream summoners wont give a damn about this staff.

@people talking about the offerings duration:

I agree that a timer would be nice, but you can easily tell when its done when the GIANT SPIRIT goes away. :P

The thing I want from these offerings is a way to know how far away minions can be from them, and what happens if you cast the same offering while its already in effect, does the last one fade away, or do they stack?

To clarify: Desecrated ground was already in the game, but it's art has been updated with this patch alongside the desecrate skill, for a variety of reasons.

Is the effect the same then (or did the armor effect change to this new skill)?
If they're not the same, can the effects stack? What about with the usual culprits (like poison nova)?

Just generally looking for more info on the skill, especially with relation to the unique armor that makes a similar effect.

Ah, the annoying Blacksmith attacks from Dunes finds it´s way to Lioneyes Watch.

Inspiring.

Thank you everyone at GGG for all of your hard work. I really appreciate a great company.

How do you know if the buff is active on the minions and how do you know the duration from multiple corpses consumed?

That staff is going to be overpowered as hell, calling it now. Dual/tri cursers are going to have that in their second equip slots with no penalty and switch over to it to give everything nearly 50% slow temporal and 50% damage reduction enfeeble, or 120% to resists using ele weakness and relevant negative to specific resist curse. I assume this also works with auras.
