About bat familiars:
I thought they were the only summons who could get elemental immunities with enough gear investment.
According to my calculations, I would need 100(destruction malus to resistance) + 100(reaching 100% res) - 75(bonus res from skill investment into batstrike) = 125% @minion_res from gear to reach immunity.
However, this did not happen when I hovered the "unsummon mouse cursor" on my bats. I don't run any mods, and they used to show immunities in normal and terror difficulty.
So... I stacked up to 200% minion res on gear: and still no immunity shown.

I would like to test if this is just a display bug, but for that I would need to find mobs who deal exclusively elemental damage. And possibly in a safe area. Any suggestion ?

Or did bats get changed ? I thought the elemental immunity was the reward for:
-: going out of your way to find assassin gear with minion bonuses.
-: using the super clunky and dangerous batstrike combo on the squishiest character.

Summons can not be immune. Max +minion resistance is capped at 75% on destruction difficulty.

So the orange orbs in Khalimgrad. I assume I just have to stay away from them, but is there anything that controls their appearance, or a way to get rid of them?

Probably incorrect tooltop.
Look at damage graphs at secondary attack and skill description.Image

That skill hits 8 times per cast. The tooltip is trying to save you some multiplication work.

Also since you are new, please do not post in this thread about stuff you are unsure of. Use the short question thread in the newbie section instead.

Does wyrd gain any benefits for additional levels after the timer gets stuck at 1 second? Or does the mana cost keep going up for no benefit?

Hey I'm having a problem getting the amulet from claw viper temple. I'm supposed to click on the altar and get the ammy, but when I click, nothing happens, my char "kicks" the air but it doesn't open. I tried with this char (necro lvl 28 hatred) and tried with lvl 120 sin, same problem. I never had this problem before, please help me.

Try changing the skill you have linked to your left mouse button and then doing it again.
