Anyone have more info about this staff, tried it or played around with it?
Gotta be very strong for perm minions yeah?This is a screenshot of the staff in question
Unless someone is in the CT (in which case theyāre under NDA) or theyāre devs (in which case they wonāt spoil anything), then no one has ever tried it or played with it. I donāt think thereās any more information than that, either.
It could be good with Wolves if the Electrify goes up to 100% chance, they get 150% more lightning damage and 60% more damage over time with nodes and can get more hits from the lightning bolts/spirit wolves.
Additionally on this Wolves get both the lightning tag from the lightning bolt node and the cold tag from ice bite node allowing them to get upto +4 from the staff.
Yeah it looks like a ācatch all minions/companionsā staff. That is good to have a item wide like that. I think this staff will be build enabling for many builds
Iām also curious to know about this. Iām curious about why thereās a mage skeleton if itās not electric.
I want to find a build to use, maybe Iāll try the wolves.
Not all of the affixes need to apply to all of the minions. They would benefit from the other affixes.
I understand, I donāt know the real potential of this item
Yeah, itās a bit weird with the +lightning minion skill which I think is only Primalist. Maybe itās just a more general minion staff themed around lightning or lightning mages (which would be cool if it converted Skellie Mages to lightning).
I tried to find ways to use it in the necromancer, but I think Iāll do it in the primalist, ray wolf and, believe it or not, you can make the scorpion turn into lightning too.
And Storm Crows too.
This is the staff Iām currently using on my necro. I got it with 15 Weaverās Will and used the new rune on it immediately.
I got +XX to minion bow and melee damage
And +XX to minion spell and melee damage
One to tier 3 and the other to tier 5. Itās been a crazy damage boost.
Now I donāt know if thereās better options (probably), but bosses are dying in 2-3 secs. For context, just started empowered monoliths, so definitely not a build defining moment.
Cool, interesting.
I discovered this weapon in my necro, but I was curious to use it by getting the 4 additional points, 2 of cold and 2 of lightning, so I opted for the minion shaman, I tested it yesterday and the tests were very promising, Iām curious to see your build if you want to share.
