Hello everyone,
I’d like to suggest a 2-star legendary gem focused on summoner builds, especially for those who enjoy using skeletons and want an option that offers a good damage boost along with utility for summoning skills.
Gem: Echoes of the Bonegrave
Description:
“The echoes of ancestral bones resound, calling forgotten legions to battle.”
Main Effects (Rank 10):
- Increases the damage of your minions by 25% while active.
- Each of your basic attacks has a 19% chance to grant your minions 15% increased attack speed and 18% increased movement speed for 6 seconds.
(Cannot occur on the same target more often than once every 6 seconds.)
Why This Gem Makes Sense:
- It balances damage and utility, increasing minion DPS and their effectiveness with the speed boost.
- The speed bonus helps minions attack faster and move better, improving pressure on enemies.
- The restriction on stacking too frequently keeps gameplay fair and balanced.
- Great for maintaining an aggressive playstyle with summoned minions, especially in crowded PvE situations.
Potential Meta Impact:
- Could strengthen summoner builds, which currently lack efficient options.
- Would facilitate faster farming and better survivability in PvE, without losing fun in PvP.
- Encourages players to invest more in summoners and explore synergies with other legendary gems and minion-focused gear.
I’d love to hear the community’s thoughts on this idea! Do you think this gem could help balance summoner builds? What would you change?
Thanks for reading.
