The Necromancer Passive, Memento Mori, is supposed to increase sacrifice bonuses of Skeleton Warrior and Mages by up to 60%.
Sacrificing Shadow Mages to gain 20% Essence Regeneration and 20 Max Essence doesn’t work correctly with it though. The 20 Max Essence can be seen increasing as you put points into the passive, but your Essence Regeneration doesn’t increase at all.
You could understand it not showing up in the character panel prior to Season 5 because it wasn’t tracking decimal places, but now it does. Going from 7 Essence per second to 8.4 is normal for the baseline sacrifice bonus of 20%; but it should be increased further by another 60%, or 32% total increased essence regeneration. That would make the total become 9.24 essence per second, which it is not.
The Maximum Essence increased by 32%
The Essence Regeneration increased by 20%.
Jeeze, I made that back in Aug of last year … so we’ve had big patches since then and nothing was fixed.
I thought something was off when playing my necro this season, as my health / stats didn’t seem to increase that much from sacrificing them. It looked roughly 30% from golem … and I didn’t even think about the fact it was missing the 77% from aspect bonus ( amulet ). Due note that memento doesn’t work for golems, just skeletal warrior and mages.
So that’s still broken, and/or it’s additive with other forms of % increases.
