Content Update 3.26.0 — Path of Exile: Secrets of the Atlas

"
Shake the meta even more, come on. It's been a year.

we need meta change for real, please Mark hear us
Hi, With the 3.26 league, if my hireling lands the killing blow, does magic find calculate from my character’s IIQ/IIR or from the mercenary’s gear/stats (if they have any)?
Please reconsider the hexblast change...:

1) Adding the 2 second cooldown is way too long + for people who have done self cast hexblast it makes it unplayable

2) Normally the gem changes are *numerical* -- which was what I was expecting... not completely gutting it. Make it more in line with the other skills. I'm ok with nerfs but this is just not it...

3) Plenty of builds can be done on a few div budget and do fine for t16s at least and get the void stones just like the hexblast mines (not like it was the only overpowered skill to do stuff on a budget... there are others)

4) Is it because that it targets enemies without even thinking/freezing stuff?... but bows-minions-other spells do that as well

5) lightning strike + molten strike of the zenith seem to be playable at least still?... but hexblast cant/ is that where the line is drawn? (those 2 skills were played more then hexblast)

It just feels bit unfair/unreasonable nerf...

______________________________________________________________________________


Now... maybe there's a way to make it playable with the rune stuff. or 1 of the new special mods, we shall wait and see.

Its pretty much guaranteed that it uses the merc's rarity

Will a mercenary be able to trigger skills? (such as The Saviour's Reflection)
GGG pls change WOrb from "Increases and Reductions to Cast Speed also apply to Projectile Frequency" to "Modifiers to Cast Speed also apply to Projectile Frequency" so we can make use of Righteous Fire of Arcane Devotion.
The mercenary feature sounds kind of annoying to me. I don't want to gear up a second character, but I will be punished in terms of drops if I don't try to.

Any chance of some bonuses for NOT taking a mercenary?
