Worth getting Int for Herald of Ash and nothing else
|
Hey there
Running a Marauder that mainly uses Infernal Blow with Melee Splash. Adding Herald of Ash to it is really fun. The extra damage is welcome and the overkill ignite seems to synergize really well with Infernal Blow. However, as you all know Herald of Ash requires Int. I have NOTHING in my build that I need Int for, other than that. So I want some opinions on this. Would I be better served just not levelling Herald of Ash, and enjoying the (still good) low level benefits it offers. Or is it worth it to grab a few Int nodes JUST for the sake of Herald of Ash's scaling and nothing else? What do you think? Last bumped on Apr 15, 2017, 2:41:35 AM

I've looked at it a little more.
We're talking a total of 4 passive points out of my way, to get enough Int that Herald of Ash will be covered all the way to 20. Also, I'm planning on going Blood Magic on this character, so Int really will do NOTHING else for him. |

I personally wouldn't.

Keep in mind that the added fire damage doesn't scale with gem level. Unless you're banking on the overkill ignites a bunch, there is no reason to level the gem.

Int in gear or just not lvl the gem, is not a big deal with that gem, lvl just boost the ignite damage.
