with a different build.
I've played both versions. 1 without Karcheus, a couple of weeks ago, and 1 with it now. IotsS alone already turned from absolute cancer to an actually viable farming area just because of this single item. And I'm not even talking about the build becoming absolutely OP. Because it still isn't (looking at you, teleport bosses). It just becomes viable because of Karcheus.
Imho you should consider making this skill independent from Karcheus. By that I mean you should consider turning Karcheus' special effect into a standard part of Balefire.
I'm still testing, so I may or may not update this post. But for now this change seems to be appropriate.
