This is a bug. We're hoping to fix it in our next hotfix. :) will you be fixing the bug that causes pet rerolls to roll the same one to completely negate the new stat and never cause it to count again? my thunder-o currently only has the defense crit chance and nothing else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ambiguous 0 Posted August 7, 2015 As you guys are listing these abilities, can you check to see what kind of damage scaling they have? At the very least, my Fire Barrage scales with hero damage, at a straight conversion of about .934x6 for a total modifier of 5.604x hero damage. As in, 1k hero damage should make the ability hit for about 934 damage, multiplied by 6 projectiles, for a total of 5604 damage. A simple way would be to check it with your normal gear, then unequip your weapon for a second test. Post results here along with your ability if at all possible. This way we can get a sense of the balance between abilities, and for various levels of hero stats. I'm guessing most if not all abilities scale with hero damage, and not something like ability power, though its certainly possible defensive abilities might.

Pachipachio 0 Posted August 8, 2015 Here's some more info on Curse Aura. 12 second CD. Rolled this on MadwickLasts ~10 seconds and every second a DoT ticks centered around the hero that cast it. There are 11 "ticks"Speed boost is substantial and lasts 3 seconds Damage seems to be 20% of hero damage @244.6 Hero damage = 47 Damage per tick@1063.6 Hero Damage = 205 Damage per tickAdded up the damage is about 220% of hero damage per castCan it crit pretty often since there are so many numbers. Don't think it actually "curses" enemies and reduces their damage dealt, but I'll test that more in depth tomorrow when I seclude some poor ogre to beat on me for a while. Currently I've only been eyeballing it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Currently I've only been eyeballing it Curse aura DOES "curse" enemies and debuffs their damage dealt. I thought it was big news so instead of editting my post, I'm bumping the threadNM2, let an ogre beat on me under serenidy aura. Looked like HP went from 6760 -> 5707on hit, then 6760->6235So 1,053 damage reduced to 525pretty confident in saying 50% damage reduction during the curse. Would be cool if others did some testing on their pet abilities :( at least damage on training dummies with current hero power Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ambiguous 0 Posted August 9, 2015 Looks like Blizzard has about a .192 conversion factor for hero damage ->ability dmg per tic. It hits 12 times, so it is about a 2.304 hero damage multiplier overall or around 230% hero damage as ability damage. Also, it's an aoe that follows the player. The description makes it sound like you summon it somewhere then leave it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hecate 0 Posted August 9, 2015 We should report the damage type the pet does as well. I suspect the elements are tied to it but a cant be sure. It would also be good to list the pet types that have been recorded to have an ability so we can identify the species pools for the more ambiguous abilities. Some are obvious, like gato fireworks, but some arent. The curses and hexes are probably creeper but that isnt assured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ambiguous 0 Posted August 9, 2015 Yeah a pet's ability is randomly pulled from one of two pools: the race pool, and the elemental pool. As in, there are abilities all creeper type pets can get, and there are abilities all pets with fire element can get, A fire damage creeper will randomly get an ability out of those two pools. Like my madwick, a creeper pet, got fire barrage because he does fire damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
