Short Questions Thread

So I unlocked the Vine Companion skill with my caster druid, but I'm a totally confused about how to use it.

- Is it meant to be casted everytime, aiming at the enemy ? As the icon & lifebar stays at the top of the screen, it seems to imply that its effects are "passive" (like a companion). Also this red ball spinning around the character...

- What's the correct way to use it ? on static / moving mobs ? On bosses ?

Thank you ! I want to feel powerful with my new uberskill :twisted:

Did you read the skill? It's a passive pet that can't die, which poisons, slows and lowers physical resist of monsters. More hard points increases the radius of it's attack. That's it, you don't have to do anything else. It attacks on it's own and follows you around. The red aura is because it increases HP as well. I'm not sure what's there to misunderstand if you read the tooltip.

Because when you recast it you see the little vine animation where you casted it. And because it's hard to track the effects on the ennemy, I wanted to make sure.
Thanks for the quick answer

Speaking of Druids, why does the Caster Tree(the Fire and Cold skills) suck as much as the Malice Necro tree does?

If you mean the body armor you get from Griswold, it's still there but now you get it from Akara in town once you free Cain.

griswold's treasure was the gift box of 3 random uniques based on your class. This has been removed about two years ago now, if not more

The vine animation is just you summoning it, it doesn't do anything with that animation. You see it's attacking when it goes up into the air and there's a lot of small vines on the ground. Affected enemies will move slower and have a greyish color.
