This is not madness to me. This is fun. Relic bound to class encourage people to have more creative builds. Magic Missile relic on a barb?? Let's try to have dual

Oris' Herald

Oris' Herald
Scepters
'ArcIgnVenFulGlaGul'
Runeword Level: 100
Orb Effects Applied to this Item are Doubled
+(2 to 3) to All Skills
+5% Bonus to Spell Focus
15% Attack Speed
35% Cast Speed
+(15 to 20)% to Physical/Magic Spell Damage
+(30 to 35) to Magic Missiles
+1000 Defense
25% to Energy
Physical Resist 10%

and see how it'd perform.

As metasequoia said in a different post: "it depends on your definition of FUN" and "it will not be for everyone, AS USUAL."

thanks!

All classes have equal chance.

i think that majority will agree that this is madness. Class relics absolutly useless, what chances of good relic drop, i can assume that its none

i think that majority will agree that this is rng. while getting class restricted, relics also got buffed and some otherwise ridiculously overpowered relics were introduced. this is probably only a one off season to have some fun with relics and rng does not like fun sometimes, true. i find all the poison relics for barbs for example... never play barbs though. too bad.

i don't particularly mind the class restriction, i just found it odd that i've had 14 relics but effectively had 0. where as last season I think i got 2 to drop, which is less than 14 but effectively it was 2. wasn't sure if my rng was that bad or what.

they do seem to be pretty strong for the classes they did drop for which is cool. it's also nice if you play multiple characters in a season. also, we don't know all the information in regards to what is happening in 3.0, this change could be ramping up to 3.0, etc.

Hello all,

Why +%cold spell damage not increase damage of harbringer? ( something change? )

Because it's a ranged attack, not a spell.

Ok, but why in every guide with cold wolf, everyone write that need spell cold damage IF it not add any damage?
That why i ask, please explain, thanks.

Because of a mistake the guide author made when writing it. Ignore that part.

I am playing elemental barb and can confirm that spell damage and spell focus does not add to IED damage, in spite of what tooltip is saying. It is the same issue with IED cold werewolf.

IED/weapon elemental damage and spells are not the same. Even if it says lightning it does not say spell. I dont see any tooltip claiming spell damage.

Hello,

"Ignore targets's defense" - how this work exacly? Some enemies can negate this? - if yes, how i will know.

Please help, thanks!
