Please make idols that has a chance to summon Thorn Totem be summoned where the hit lands or where the cursor is instead of around the character.
Using Thorn Totem directly summons the totems where the cursor is whether I have “Grove Mind” or not, so it doesn’t make sense why the proc from the ornate idol doesn’t do the same. I am currently playing Spirit Thorn build and it looks like this (and it feels horrible):
Here are some reason why this change has to be made. Playing a Spirit Thorns build doesn’t really have other skill option but to use thorn totem as the last specialized skill in slot, since typically you would be using:
- Spriggan Form
- Maelstrom
- Entangling Roots
- Summon Spriggan (optional, also which could be replaced by other Druid transformation skills for “dual transformation” type build)
- Thorn Totem (also kinda optional but what else is there to be used? For a “cold spirit thorn” druid build, this is probably one of the best to use. I tried Gathering Storms and converted it to Cold but it’s bugged and it’s not proccing when converted with “Frostbringer” node)
And being a Spirit Thorn build which is obviously a long/mid range build, having to get up close to the enemy so that all the totems that procced via the idol to hit the enemy also feels bad to use.
Lastly, please tone down the visual effects of the Thorn Totem exploding on death especially when converted to cold via “Pillars of Heorot” node because it’s kinda blinding for me at least.
Please kindly consider these. Thank you.
