Idols


The main prefix you want on idols is % chance to summon thorn totem on hit. Suffix doesnt really matter, but the extra % chance to cast avalanche boulders on spell cast means more chance for hits which means more thorn totems so those are nice.

Ascendent Circle doesnt say anything about minions?

Do you use it to push your own spelldamage? I cant see the benefit of it :confused:

It would affect Ice Thorns, Maelstrom & the proc from Tempest Strike.

Yeah…but Totem have the ‘spell’ tag

Totems are confusing so I stay away from them in this game but generally a Totem is supposed to be an extension of you

They have ‘Minion’ and ‘Spell’ tag they don’t even have an elemental tag

on a totally non related thing. Why does Animated Minion even exist in this game…its worthless and has almost zero support at all for it

Totems have the spell tag because they cast spells so you can know that they will be buffed by minion spell damage rather than minion melee damage. And since they have the minion tag they don’t get the benefit of any of your damage.

Not sure what you mean by “animated minion” since that’s not on the Shaman tree.

Would you be willing to go over the skill and mastery trees and update them?
