The black hole skill the sorcerer gets is pretty neat. I saw one of the passives called Binary System made 2 stars rotating around each other, doing a lot of damage mixed as fire and cold. Sounds awesome! Except one of the pre-req passives says it converts the cold damage of black hole to fire and no longer scales cold damage. So how does that work exactly with binary system? If I have increased elemental damage, does it only increase the fire damage?
The other thing I liked about this skill is that you can get chance to blind nearby enemies, which sounds great mechanically. However, the skill is not at all flashy. Like I need double bloom on this binary system, like it would actually blind someone. The skill effect is underwhelming to say the least. I would actually think it would be on point to have it brighter with each point in the blind passive.
The AoE on this skill feels tiny. I dropped it in the middle of a pack and it felt like it wasn’t touching things that were pretty close. My elemental nova can hit near the whole screen, which feels great. I thought picking binary system would help with this but it really doesn’t seem to do much for the AoE. And strangely the graphic for this passive is identical to elemental nova.
