It appears that all the nodes that “throw acid flask for you” in Explosive Trap and Shift don’t inherit all the nodes from the skill tree.
The “Parting Gift” node from Shift ignores “Toxic Salvo” and “Cluster Bomb” from the Acid Flask tree, dropping only a single flask with no secondary explosions.
“Instrument of the Alchemist” in the Explosive Trap tree doesn’t respect the “Toxic Salvo” node in the Acid Flask tree.
Observed an acid flask being triggered from the free trap, and it throws a single flask before purchasing Toxic Salvo, and then observe it still throwing only a single flask after purchasing Toxic Salvo.
It also doesn’t appear to be inheriting the “Cluster Bomb” node from Acid Flask with no secondary explosions observed from the “Instrument of the Alchemist” flask throws.
I haven’t got as far to unlock it yet, but I would suspect the Falcon dropping Acid Flasks would likely have the same issues.
I noticed that too, and the additional mana cost from Toxic Salvo, since it applies to Acid flask, also makes the trigger from explosive trap cost more mana, but no effect at all.
The Falcon dropping Acid Flask works with Toxic Salvo.
Thankfully I am playing a cold acid flask build and don’t have to worry about mana sustain anymore (by respecing Toxic Salvo and spamming Explosive Trap).
I’ve got the falcon unlocked and yeah, it does respect the Acid Flask tree. But I noticed there’s a difference in the wording. The Falconry tree actually says that it inherits the skill tree, but the Explosive Trap and Shift nodes just say they throw an acid flask. Some clarification would be nice, cause the nodes that just throw an acid flask do respect that I’ve changed it to be a fire acid flask so, it inherits some of it
Noticed it my self and came here to see if im tripping or not.
What King88 is saying makes sense. Even like this my fire throw falconeer build seems amazing. Whats disappointing is even thought Explo Trap doesnt use Acid flask tree it uses the increased mana on Acid flask from Toxic Salvo and Cluster Bomb without the benefits that come with it :S
Will keep at it.
p.s. I have to optimize this build at some point also. Will pop even more
Also shift bug, I upgraded to parting gift which is supposed to drop acid flask 50 percent of the time, I’ve shifted 200 times no acid flasks. Is this known bug?
