PLZ add new physical spell gem rather than EK

Agreed. +1 (maybe an area of effect spell)

Am I the only one who dislikes the idea of always having golems in the awakening? It's seems like a must have for everyone because of their strong buffs and I really dislike playing with minions.

its not the dev's fault that players want to to stack everything they can... thats every game

Id love a few more curses to be added maybe some more that do damage on their own rather then just debuff for an element etc or a mass fear one or a frenzy one that causes monsters to attack anything including other enemies for abit of crowd control i dunno im sure the ggg guys can think up better ones then i can

Or they can remake some curses to fit damage + debuff too.

As there's no thread for wild strike yet - how is the damage of the explosion/arc/cold projectile calculated? Based on the 60% conversion, the whole thing, the full damage of the hit, what?

I assume because there's no listed crit chance that it's not secondary damage like infernal blow?

I would like to see summon chaos golem as a Str/Dex require hybrid gem or a str/int hybrid rather than pure int because in my opinion it's stat (% phys reduction) is mainly used by melee character's that focus on armor stacking rather than on a evasion or es character which focuses on dodging or evading. The 150+ int requirement is just brutal to a melee mara trying to use this gem max lvled.

Glacial Hammer is now useless, because it's outclassed by Ice Crash on all fronts. Almost equal weapon damage, a free AoE, just generally better DPS than Glacial and it doesn't need gems like Melee Splash to perform.

i hate the change to added lightning, shock chance was so damn important due to quality increase

How about a skill that changes evolves through stats? My thought is a Shuriken or if to keep the theme intact, Throwing Knives.
More str more radius of damage
More dex more projectiles
More int more time it bounces (like the arc)
