Can we please get some lightning love? Fire has everything and when I look at my options for lightning, (unique or skill gem) I just feel like I have way less options. I would really like to see a Lightning Storm skill come in The Fall of Oriath. It would make me very happy.

I think with Tidebreaker, we can make some interesting crit vigilant strike builds. We bypass the vigilant strike cooldown by spending an end charge which we'll never run out of with the end charge on melee stun. Also since vigilant strike cannot be evaded, we don't have to worry about accuracy and can go crit.

No, its the fact that instead of addressing how things function for melee theyre putting them on weapons which are just a band aid fix to a larger issue.

This mace is a great example because its a QOL fix for endurance charges on melee builds. You dont need to slot in enduring cry with this item and you get extra benefits from having the inherent stats from the gem. Instead of making enduring cry/buff mechanics better for melee characters, theyre "fixing" it by making it inherent/automated. Its no secret that refreshing charges as melee is annoying as fuck, this mace makes it less annoying.

At the same time it fixes nothing because stun immune mobs/map mod, youre forced to reroll the easiest map modifier for the weapon to function properly.
