What do you all think of this? If the falling zombies are counted as doing the damage, then The Baron might be a weird way to create spammable indirect healing with something like a spell totem or arcane brand



Better to do on a Str build and casting arcane brand / spell totem through blood magic.

It's just a gimmick but funny .

I could see there being a version that trades higher AoE for slower speed, something like "+0-1 to base AoE Radius, 0-20% less movement speed"

Kind of, can have more then one at least. Seems cool, ball lighting was always kind of weird to scale with having to get slower proj to keep the damage up for bossing. Guess now you'll need to scale some duration instead but at least that is in a better location on the tree.

That transfigure probably comes with a severe nerf to damage compared to today's ball lightning. Even if you need to stack duration, it's got so many ways of scaling.

Unless they make a special exception for it then no. Minion instability only triggers when a minion hits low life, not when it dies.
However, it should proc Siegebreaker and its replica as well as death effects like the defence mastery

I'm guessing not. I imagine it will be more akin to having a minion's duration expire, where it counts as a death (hello Heartbound Loop), but the minion's life doesn't reach Low Life in the process.

Re: top half of tree being defense shy, I seemed to recall some sort of jewel that let you bridge between two jewel slots akin to like, an atlas tree waypoint, but I seem to have dreamt it or mixed up Impossible Escape/Thread of Hope or combined a lot of everything together.

What I'm saying is this would be extremely good and broken.

Make it a small cluster unique so requires two, uses a bunch of points itself and has limited entry points? No I haven't seen if this would be also broken or not.

Maybe? I don't think I'd take both of those though, they don't have any synergy and it takes 6 ascendancy points to get both. All the other notables are so much better.

Penance Mark is on a duration and can't be triggered, Sentinel of Radiance is on a duration and can't be triggered... why does GGG want to force me to stop and Push Butan as much as possible? Yeah I know the answer but geez...

Also what were the designers thinking that they made "Unwavering Crusade" give you 3 auras but then not have them interact with "Unwavering Faith" in any way. They could have made it say "Auras from Your Skills or Your Minion's Skills" and it would have been, you know, cohesive?

I am tempted to bleed bow, even though in my heart of hearts I know that it is probably a trap. I still miss its time prior to the removal of the elder mod, and enjoyed the hell out of it.

A smarter me should probably go for an exsanguinate or EK poison patherfinder.
