Item Development - Information

why not doing the skill as skillgem in a fixed non removeble additional socket on the staff and give him a normal skill description and you can just hover over it like a socketed gem and read that ?

I doubt they have the infrastructure for that, and you just KNOW some dinkus will start the movement to get that 7th socket added as a permanent thing.

suggestion for build with this item:

skill tree - level 80:

items:
* this staff
* rings - perandus signet x 2
* belt - perandus blazon - 30 all attributes
* helmet - black sun crest with 15% inc intelligence
* amulet - astramentis - around 100 intelligence or good stats ammy with around 70-80 int
* boots - Rainbowstride - best for any caster, or high ES boots with 40-50 INT
* gloves - rare resistance filler, possibly rolled int
* body armour - high ES, resist filler, possibly rolled int

this gives following results:
- 500 int from tree
- at least 130 int from items
- additional 15% int from helmet
- additional int from perandus signets - if we equip above 7 uniques its:
2 signets x7 uniques x3% = 42% additional intelligence
total: 630 x 57% = ~990 int, lets round to 1000

Results of my brainstorming about 1000 intelligence:

* Icestorm will have base damage of 100-300 cold damage, now we have to add 100% spell damage from
the unique and all mods from tree
for reference firestorm skill have 122–183 base damage at level 20
* 1000 int -> 200% increased energy shield
(and 219% from skill tree - i bet it will easily pass 10k ES)
* also its a lot of mana, im sure we wont have mana problems with this build
(even if we reserve like 90% for auras)

gem choices:
* spell echo - obious repeat of skill, i believe it stacks same as firestorm
* concentrated effect as best aoe damage buff
* added lightning
* added cold
* faster casting
* 6th support i believe totall overkill added chaos damage

aura choices:
* discipline
* herald of thunder + empower in helm (black sun crest gives +1 to skill gems)
* herald of ice + empower in helm

im sure i will give this item a try, and when find some time create spreadsheet to find balance between taking intelligence for passives and spell/elemental modifiers on tree

You desperately need to run increased duration as a gem if you're not getting the +skill duration nodes on the tree (which is almost impossible to do with an ES build unfortunately). It's far better than any added x support.

why don't you just make it so the mod says "Grants the Icestorm skill" ?

Agree with this guy. Alternatively, the unique flavour text could just make it clear that the skill scales with intelligence.

I don't think we want to go down the road of flavor text conveying game information. At that point, it's no longer flavor text.

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH GGG I LOVE YOU.
Been waiting for a re make of Firestorm that doesn't lag.
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
1st thing i'm gonna buy next league. woooooooooooooo
LOL, why would you think that Icestorm will not be laggy?
Also, as I see it, it will create even more desync than Firestorm. Because of freezing/chilling.
And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.
seems a quite powerful Staff.

(good to see the people here already calculating the full possible dmg - i´m glad i have perandus blazon+30 and x2 signets ... :p :p)

but i was wondering : why put Zendethus, lori and Diamond flask en circle of the presentation ?

the Staff will be further modified to have "Luck Effect" added somehow ?

btw, the "stuff" of this staff/jaws of agony/similars doesn´t need to be fully linked to run it´s full power proceed ?



oh, and a pun.
