FFS, youre not serious?? So we dont have a fully fixed mendeln AND we still dont have aspects working properly + passives + edict, etc??

OMG.

They fixed the Grasping Vein/Blood Breeches Pants critical damage bonuses for Mendeln, but nothing else, Great Feast/Reanimation/Titanā€™s Fall/Hellbent Commander all still broken, and they called it for the fix. Best devs in the industry ā€¦ Guess most of these things probably wonā€™t be fixed until season 10 :upside_down_face:

I have lost all my interest to be honest.
Maybe in 1-2 years the game and then the minion necro will work as as intended.

So much potential, but if the most basic things donā€™t even workā€¦well. :see_no_evil:

So disappointed.

I really wanted to login with my fully setup Minion Necro and start stomping thingsā€¦and it is just the sameā€¦weaksauce.

Soooā€¦ Did the hotfix actually fixed the stuff it claims?

i havenā€™t tested each thing and im not going to :stuck_out_tongue:

but my damage has shot up massively!!

Thatā€™s enough for me. Bactyrael or someone will probably do a thorough testing to confirm the fixes.

I went afk for nearly 10mins in the middle of a pit 100, and still finished it in timeā€¦ with my homebrew build which definitely doesnā€™t maximize damage :rofl:

Nice. :grinning: Love to hear that.

yep and we are still missing reanimation modifiers and some paragon additive modifiers on mendeln by blizzards own admission. Though no mention of Great Feast, so that needs testing and if its still not effecting Mendeln then hopefully its an oversite on the hotfix notes and is also fixed with reanimation at a later date due to it needing a proper patch.

Here is a link to the answer for the minion bugs.

I did some quick tests and verified:
Mentioned and fixed:

  • Blood Golem
  • Skirmisher
  • Skeleton Priests
  • Kalanā€™s Edict

Not mentioned but fixed:

  • Great feast
  • Eliminator Glyph

Not (fully) fixed:

  • Reanimation: not fixed
  • Titanā€™s Fall: works for minion, not Mendeln
  • Hellbent Commander: works for minion and Mendeln, but the damage increase seems to be lower than expected. Iā€™m only getting about 18% increase with 3 extra points which is supposed to increase damage by 30%. My skeleton normal hit goes from 1900k to 2250k, Mendeln goes from 66.1M to 78.5M

Went from Pit 95 to Pit 105 with this fix on Eternal. Imagine if they fixed everything. Minions would be quite comfortably reach 120 on Seasonal

But the managers do not want minions to be as powerful. Full potential will never be seen unless this is made into an offline mode and someone actually fixes the code.

What exactly is the full potential of the build? What is the full potential of any build?

Makes no sense as the most DPS build this season is literally one button.

Meta builds all tend to be easy builds (button mashing or 1 button) every seasonā€¦
