Channeled Skils

Awfully quiet.

Are they even going to be in the AoW league?!

I'm holding some character slots open for them...

They literally said that it would be *tentatively* patch 2.4.2. We just got 2.4.1 yesterday. Chill bro. They're coming. We got a teaser vid for one of them.

Thanks? Your confusion would be eliminated by reading the news posts? Not to mention that the list you posted there in the spoiler tags clearly shows a pattern in the past where plenty of skills were released in mid-league patches, not all at once on day 1 of a new league...

On the contrary - Every league has been released with new skills, except for Ambush/Invasion.

As a matter of fact, after patch 1.1 the following happened:
1.2 released with 5 new skills
1.3 released with 8 new skills
2.0 released with 15 new skills
2.1 released with 8 new skills
2.2 released with 7 new skills
2.3 released with 6 new skills
2.4 release with ZERO new skills

The reason is so that people could build a new character with new skills at the beginning of a league and play it all the way through.

I don't disagree that some skills are released after the main league starts, but those have mainly been "catch-ups" and variations on a theme, like: lightning golem after ice and fire were already released, or herald of thunder after the other two heralds were already out. (both coincidentally lightning ?)

No new skills have been released since June.

I don't know why you guys think it is odd that I wondering why its been so long since a skill gem has been released. This is quite obviously and clearly the longest time without a skill gem release in about 3 years, and the first time a league did not release with new skills since 1.1.
But you act like there's been no communication on the subject. There have been multiple posts and announcements from GGG on the subject of the channeled skills.

Posts which amount to "it's a thing we're doing." They have literally said nothing about what these skills actually do, what tags they have, etc. All we know is that one is a fire beam, and only because it obviously looks like a fire beam.

They channeled skills are on the way.
I repeat "They channeled skills are on the way."

Trust me I am just as excited for new things to play with as you, but making a random forum post complaining about it is useless. We will get the skill Soon®

I think it's less about the skills not being in the game yet, but rather GGG's standard practice of hiding everything in a box until the last possible second. And then inevitably the contents of said box are incredibly disappointing because they let the community's imagination create something a million times better than what they actually made (See: The Atlas).

Long story short, GGG is dogshit at marketing, shocking I know.
